20 Problems Only People From Sheffield Will Understand

9. Uncooperative Buses

There is a war going on in Sheffield right now. An invisible war, which €“ unless you know what you're looking for €“ will have probably escaped your attention. Well, unless you know what you're looking for, or else you're somebody who regularly relies on public transport to get from one side of the city to the other, and you realise that all the different routes and bus companies don't exactly cooperate and make any sort of complex commute impossible. Seriously, it's like the warring clans from Game Of Thrones or something when it comes to traversing the different districts of the city. Nobody seems to want anything to do with each other €“ or at least, that's how it comes across with the way the buses work. Sure, Crookes and Nether Edge and the centre all have their own eco-systems and can exist independently, but sometimes it's nice to be able to visit a different part without buying five different tickets and walking half the way, right?
