busfan2847 Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 In London the New Routemasters entered service allowing passengers to get on at any of the three doors which had ticket machines. Recently they have changed boarding to be at the front only due to people not paying at the middle and back doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the pilot for all door boarding was announced for the south side with J14 and 192 as the pilot routes, but most people on the south side pay their fares and tap their cards just like everyone else in the city. That it happened that day on the 79 is a consequence of artics having moved from 103rd to 77th and K as part of the spreading out of artics among all the garages that have maintenance facilities for better social distancing on the buses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
