I live in Chorlton and use the 86 daily, on Monday UK North decided to run buses on that route which is perfectly legal, Stagecoach have been neglecting Chorlton for a while because they thought they owned the routes, they start missing out buses so they could flood other routes. Since Monday the first day of the UK North service Stagecoach have been running 86 and 85 buses every minute, I reckon they are now 100 stagecoach buses form Chorlton every hour, this is causing massive traffic jams in the city centre. What annoys me is that its UK North getting the blame by the media, now this company is by no means innocent they have a deserved bad reputation. However Stagecoach flooding the routes is what is causing Manchester to be a total gridlock this week. My MP has debated the issue before in parliment but was told they are not going to change the law. So what can be done about this? Stagecoach are surely abusing their power? And where do all these buses come from in order to flood the routes? Simple they neglect other routes. The MD of Stagecoach said they are not scared of competition so how come they have been in trouble so many times for breaking such laws? How come they are flooding the route since UK North started operating? Before yesterday I often had to wait 10 minutes for a bus that was supposed to be every 5, now they are every second, yet the MEN claim the problem is purely caused by UK North :(. It dosn't make any sense.
