Ariva And Stagecoach Respond

By Mike Ashworth | December 20, 2012

Following on from the incident that occurred last week where my mum, 84, was forced off a bus in St Helens, Ariva and Stagecoach (who run buses on the route in question) have conducted a review of the CCTV footage. They have advised that they can find no evidence of the incident occurring.

I have spoken to both my mum and sister about this and we can only conclude that because the incident was not fresh in her mind when it was reported, that the days / times we gave them may have been incorrect. My mum is adamant that this incident occurred and is most unhappy that this is now the end of the matter.

We are still awaiting confirmation regarding their policies for priority seating.

My mum will continue to avoid buses where priority seating is taken up with non priority individuals, who she feels would not move, an would likely cause a confrontation if asked.

My mum will now keep much better records of incidents in the future, so that the bus companies will be able to conduct more effective investigations.
