00:00 Come with me to get Sheffield's worst bus. So last week we asked our readers what the

00:07 worst bus service is in Sheffield and the one which runs from Batemore to High Green

00:13 came top of the list. So here I am at Sheffield Lane Top just waiting for the bus. I arrived

00:19 just before 9 and I had a few minutes to wait for the bus so test 1 was whether it would

00:23 show up on time. So I've made it to Sheffield Lane Top, I'm just waiting on the bus now.

00:29 It has I think 3 minutes to get here on time so that is test number 1. I did have a chat

00:35 with some ladies at the bus stop and they told me that the one is quite bad but here

00:39 it is arriving 1 minute late. So here I am just enjoying the views from the bus route.

00:47 The seats were the old ones so not particularly comfortable but not bad, they do the job.

00:54 And yeah this is me going through Chapel Town I believe. I have sped up these clips, the

00:58 bus driver wasn't speeding and I was using this Google Maps app just to track where I

01:04 was going so I knew where to get off. So I've just got off at Foster's Way stop. I thought

01:12 this was the last bus stop but I realise now that it wasn't because the bus did keep going.

01:19 Yeah I have made it to High Green, I've never been here before and I have no idea where

01:23 I am but all in all I would say that the bus journey was pretty smooth. It was 2 minutes

01:30 late I think which wasn't a massive inconvenience to me, not that I had any particular time

01:35 deadlines. And yeah the seat was comfortable, I thought the driver was very safe so yeah

01:43 kind of a thumbs up from me. So I had a nice walk around High Green and spring has definitely

01:49 sprung here, it was very pretty. And here is me waiting for the bus once more, it was

01:55 scheduled for about 10 minutes time. So I've had a very nice walk around High Green and

02:02 it's now time to go back. So it is 11 past 11 exactly and I have 8 minutes until my bus.

02:10 Thankfully I've found a nice bench so I'm just having a little seat and let's see if

02:16 the bus turns up on time. So this is me travelling back down to Sheffield

02:20 Lane Top, the bus did arrive on time and unfortunately I have no complaints, it was a really smooth

02:27 and easy journey and I arrived safe and sound back at Barnsley Road.
