Villagers have been frustrated as they say bus services are often being cancelled. Some Keyworth residents said they feel the Trentbarton bus service, The Keyworth, is at times unreliable and are disappointed in the number of services being affected, including almost 40 on Monday, October 17.
The irregularity of services is causing problems for some of the village's elderly residents who no longer drive, and use the bus to get to appointments. The delays and cancelled services are causing people to be late and miss connections.
Many residents say that they wait for buses to arrive, and although the service is expected every 15 minutes, it can be closer to an hour of waiting. Other bus users have also said that once the bus does arrive, it is often followed by another bus of the same service rather than that bus waiting to spread out the services.
