Dear Callum,

 

Thank you for your email. 

 

After looking at your complaint, I can see that the reason you did not
receive a response is because your request was not received by anybody at
Reading Buses.   

 

The Hanover Database contains some commercially sensitive information,
particularly around private and contracted services and events that we
have operated or may operate in the future, therefore I am unable to share
this with you at the moment. 

 

All of our scheduled routes and destinations are available for anybody to
view on our website, reading-buses.co.uk, or alternatively we have printed
timetables that are available at a number of locations in Reading. 

 

With best wishes,

 

Laurence Jenkins

Finance Director - Reading Buses

I don't think they have the legal grounds to deny this request; they have also accepted previous requests in the past for similar, albeit currently outdated, information.
