RE: Stagecoach Merseyside
Rare allocation for the Month Volvo Olympian 16654 made it out onto the 19 for a route trip today and i was in the right place to get it! this has never happened before but with Gillmoss being mega short there was just nothing else to send out!!
RE: Arriva Bolton
Another Major change coming in

537 - frequency up to every 15 mins, partly re routed
538 - Withdrawn
575 - 2 am trips retimed to run 2 mins later

Heres more Details credit to Arriva Facebook (Official Page)

Hi Terence, the only change for the 575 is 2 morning trips currently departing at 07.18 and 07.48 will depart at 07.20 and 07.50. Our 538 daytime service is to be withdrawn replaced by our 537 which will operate on a 15-minute frequency. Our 537 will no longer serve Egerton or Bromley Cross, it will operated via Blackburn Road then around the estate in an anti-clockwise direction and return. Hope this helps.

RE: Arriva Bolton
A shocking move by Arriva Bolton is the Introduction of a 10 Pound Weekly Ticket on route 10 (Brookhouse - Eccels - Manchester) valid from Sunday on a Trail Basis, the Saturday Frequency will increase to every 12 Mins (Fitting in with the Mon - Fri Frequency) and the Sunday service will be Increased to every 20 Mins! I can only assume that this is to compete with Firsts 110 that follows a large percentage of the 10 route!
RE: Arriva Bolton
(05 Mar 2014, 9:36 pm)St Helens Rider wrote It's interesting that First are withdrawing their 10 from the same day. The Arriva move is like what they did on the 320 back in January with the full route journeys to Wigan - improving the Mon - Fri and Sunday daytime service.

their 10 service was only a College thing, its the 110 you need to worry about, its the main thing in the 10's way, if you can blow a strong blow onto that service it will be good for the 10!
