IN answer to Cynthia Glasby’s comment regarding No 5 bus service, I don’t think she got the point I was making (Readers’ Letters, September 4).

Why cannot the No 5 bus service be on time like the No 1 bus service to Haxby-Wigginton?

The No 1 bus takes the same route down Clarence Street, Gillygate and through to Acomb and is usually on time.

By the way, I have sat on the bus in Clarence Street many times waiting in traffic. As for the buses disappearing in Strensall, maybe it’s you entertaining the drivers with tea and scones.

The No 5 service has been deteriorating for a long time, long before they travelled to Acomb.

So, Cynthia Glasby, hope you understand my complaint better now.
