I keep hearing folks warble on about buses!
They dont come cheap y'know.
To run a service of 10 minute frequency over a route that takes at least 20 minutes to run would require THREE minibuses going at full tilt.
That is the hire of three vehs and three drivers.
This would be quite seperate from the vehs required to take bands + kit to their venues.
As Band times are more or less all the same, that means another one veh + driver at least.
Running a passenger service to the Pavillion would be a definate no no. on account of the difficulty of access, waiting, and turn around.
I am sure the police would not allow a scheduled run involving such a route.
A simple circular run, from campsite to Queens Road & return via Bandstand/trade tents would probably involve a frequency of more like 20 mins if only two vehicles were allocated, with a stand time of just 5 mins each end.
Logistics is one thing, paying for it is quite another.
Your local bus service is heavily subsidised, the camp buses are paid for by season ticket money.
There are fairly frequent bus services from Queens Rd that go by the camp site, but who uses them?
As for Security, that aint cheap either.
I baulk at paying the amount I do now, without adding another £100 to my season ticket price.
I would much rather just keep moaning about the long uphill walk, and be ready to employ my martial arts expertese (I am deadly with a house brick) :-)
