Is D&G pay higher? I'm surprised that their conditions would be better though as D&G doesn't seem to present itself as the sort of operator with great conditions.


Could Arriva run down the network purely based on the fact they have too few drivers. If people keep leaving and they can't cover work, what else can they do but slowly rid some services?


D and G's hourly rate is barely above minimum wage. I'd hazard a guess that Arriva still offer one of the highest hourly rates in Cheshire - they were certainly the highest payers in the area when I worked for GHA at Winsford.

Coincidentally I received an alert a few days ago saying Arriva are recruiting again at Winsford.
