Merry Christmas. This festive scene in High Wycombe is at dusk on Castle Street right by the Parish Church of All Saints. Buses from the two main local operators pass as Carousel Buses, Wright Streetlite 405 (SM65LNG) exits the pedestrian zone and heads on the 103 to Watford as Arriva the Shires Mercedes Citaro 3929 (BG59FCZ) enters the zone on town service 32. The "buses only" pedestrian zone is widely ignored by local motorists, including L-plate food delivery motor scooter drivers. Enforcement cameras have been installed, but are yet to be commissioned. They should pay for themselves within 24 hours! The Citaro was new in Platinum livery for use in Milton Keynes with high specification 2+1 seating in the forward area and a total seated capacity of only 37. They were used initially in Wycombe in Platinum livery and retain their interior layout. The use of the Streetlite on the 103 is also interesting as until recently the route was the preserve of the company's Optare Solos, but they have been retired. One final point to note is that the Streetlite is on the SHOWBUSflyby route and will be used by participants headed for Brunel University on September 18th next year. SHOWBUSflyby buses headed in the opposite direction will use the parallel High Street and pass through the SHOWBUS TRADERS VILLAGE.
