There have recently been a *lot* more ticket inspectors in the mornings

happening across all the free^Wbendy routes? And I think there have
been more empty seats too.

I'm wondering if it's a Boris-ism, designed to make bendies less popular
by kicking off all the freeloaders who, obviously, think they're the
best thing since sliced bread. Employing lots more ticket inspectors
could also be a cunning ruse to push the cost of bendies up so he can
show that the Borismaster isn't so expensive either.

Hurrah for ticket inspectors!

I also noticed signs about road works to improve the route 38. Perhaps
it's related to them?
