By Travel disruption continues in Grimsby
There have been continuous delays and driver shortages affecting the local services.
One man posted on Twitter claiming an elderly lady with a walking stick had been left waiting almost an hour.
Users rely on the services, especially those who are elderly or disabled.
The Council has purchased real estate eyed for a new Grimsby bus station, however with a continuous driver shortage, it can’t come to fruition until the issue is solved.
In recent months, multiple buses each day have been cancelled by Stagecoach, prompting anger amongst locals who have been left waiting up to half an hour for a bus to show.
There have also been various cancellations for services in Scunthorpe and Lincoln too.
Cancellations are posted each morning to Stagecoach East Midlands Twitter, and buses can be tracked live on the Stagecoach app.
When asked about the reason for the shortage in bus drivers, a spokesperson from Stagecoach East Midlands told Gi Media: “As with many industries across the country, we are continuing to face a short-term staffing situation that is out of our control due to external factors affecting the wider transport and logistics sector.
