BRING BACK OUR TARDIS!

IT’S difficult to get a taxi from our town to Hibaldstow after 5pm, a resident of the village has complained to Brigg Blog.
Wishing to remain anonymous, our informant says it’s creating difficulties coming in for shopping, doctor’s visits, trips to the library ‘and having a few pints in the pub’. He thinks there is an ‘open opportunity’ for taxi or bus firms to generate business from the ‘many non-drivers’.
So over to you, local entrepreneurs!
Talking of travel, how long does it have to be before someone in authority gets the farce in Cary Lane sorted out?
We've commented before in Brigg Blog about the lack of information for bus-users.
The computer-controlled information screen was out of action for months, then finally removed...we were led to believe for repairs.
Then old-fashioned glass-fronted panels were put up for timetables, but currently contain no information.
That means the casual traveller arriving at our main bus stop has no idea when the next bus is arriving, or where it's heading.
True, there are two lamp-posts on which are stuck adverts for Traveline, inviting people who want info to ring 0871 2002233 or visit the website www.traveline.info
Fine, if you happen to have a mobile phone, Blackberry or laptop with you. But not if you are a casual traveller who would surely prefer just to see an up-to-date timetable available in Cary Lane.
Maybe one, or more, of the councillors who read Brigg Blog will be able to give us some idea when Cary Lane's computerised travel information 'Tardis' is to be returned to its rightful place in the bus stop? And when we can expect some timetables to be placed in the glass-fronted display panels?
