This saga seems like its coming to an end. We (4 leaders and myself) spoke to Mr. Scott this afternoon, and unfortunately it doesn’t look like Haileybury will budge. Pretty much Haileybury are stuck with twelve or so Metlink funded bus routes that can’t be changed without losing the Metlink funding for that route. So in order to meet demand Haileybury have had to introduce ‘Haileybury’ funded buses, and of course these buses cost money, a lot of money.

Unfortunately Haileybury is pretty much being held over a barrel and theres not much they can do, except cover the cost of the new buses themselves, which they do, and of course to do this, ticket prices must rise. Mr. Scott is going to raise some of our concerns with Mr. Dwyer, mainly about the flexibility of the system and some issues such as late buses etc.

Also Luke Hawley got his Haileybury vest embroidered with ‘Tech Crew’ on the back, it looks very cool and I must say I’m very jealous.
