Train replacement bus missed the connecting train it was replacing. A 90 minute journey has now become a two hour journey, because the replacement bus missed its train by less than a minute. I saw it leaving, going straight past the bus.
Why the fuck aren’t the trains required to wait for their connecting buses? It’s the bare fucking minimum, and yet we can’t even get that right.
$10 a day…PTV needs to be renationalised. This hybrid bullshit wastes time, money, and puts people in unsafe situations because no one bothered to schedule appropriate numbers of connections, causing half hour waits in unsafe parts of town. Not okay.
I hate how trains and bus replacements never line up. Especially when you get to the stations where they only service it every 20 minutes. Sometimes they do, but then your bus is expected to arrive at like 1:20 and the train leaves at 1:25, for some people, that is not enough time. Especially for places like Westall, Dandenong, Morrabbin was hell when I was on the Frankston line.

$10 a day is killing me. Plus the issue you highlighted, it’s such a fkn rort.
