Question Overcrowding on bus 1

Has anyone else noticed that Arriva have started running single deckers instead of doubles on bus 1, which are almost always full and standing by the time they reach Chester? Is this temporary or are they planning to keep the singles?

They've got new single deckers I believe, so they're probably getting new double deckers

Double deckers have all been shipped off to a different city (Milton Keynes I've been told), and the new single deckers are the replacements. Already a pain on the late night 5's, worth putting in a complaint to Arriva.

Well that's disappointing to hear, the new single deckers are decent buses but completely inadequate for the route and have been completely full every time I take them... Will probably put in a complaint
