SIR – What is happening to the buses on First Bradford’s 610/612 route?

They do not appear to be keeping to any sort of timetable, often a 40 minute wait. Not just sometimes, but often.

In this cold weather, I feel this totally unacceptable. This route is supposed to be approximately a 15-minute service.

Also why are Bradford’s buses so filthy, both inside and out? The managers should take a ride on Keighley & District or Harrogate buses and take note. Their buses are comfortable, clean and punctual.

There is a Leeds number displayed on all our bus stops, and when I phoned I was instructed to press 2 for complaints. I was then told it was nothing to do with them and told to contact Bradford council – so why phone Leeds?

So, Mr Bradford bus manager, whoever you are, can you give the long-suffering public on route 610/612 some explanation please.

It’s little wonder people travel by car.
