RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Bangor Depot
711 back on the 62 along with a few cadets which these days seems rare as they normally have most of the cadets in Pwllheli, or Llandudno outstation. 2631 & 2484 were both on the 62 and 2657 been the only pulsar on route.

Does anyone know, if the 62 is having its frequency increased from every 30min to 20min, in March/April this year. Thanks

Does the 62 carry enough off peak to quantity a twenty minute frequency. Considering it's quite common to see a Optare Solo operating at least one of the working diagrams

The service is getting busier and busier, there is what I've heard a slight route change on
some journeys. Morning Journeys are full in the morning until around 10:45 into Bangor and goes quiet until around 12:15 from Bangor where the service picks up.

Amlwch outstation operate 3 Pulsars. where as Bangor operate 1 bus this is normally the last bus that leaves the depot in the morning (so its whatever's spare). 711 seems to the usual bus that's on the Bangor depot contribution. I've never understood a MPD apart from the 10:15 from Bangor which is quiet 08:15 during a weekday period can get very busy along with the 12:15, 14:15 & 16:15 which is times that Bangor depot run their bus. The rest of the other times currently are all run by Amlwch outstation.

62A morning service and 62b evening service is also operated by Bangor depot. 62a these days is normally a cymru coastliner and 62B is normally an optare solo which has been on the 67/7/67b service earlier in the day.

Hope this brings more light to the day to day operation.
