A few contract wins/holds for Arriva. Laird Street seem to be doing well with gaining the 110 and 174/5 and it appears they have held the 118/9 - certainly bucking the trend across the Merseyside group.

Another two confirmed now, both routes 135 and 235 are to be operated by Cumfybus, 235 commercially along with the odd 135, but most 135s (as they are evenings/Sundays) are still a Merseytravel contract but awarded to Cumfybus, ex HTL Buses.

Latest changes include confirmation that HTL will continue to run the evening 141 (and as they interwork the 36 too) in St Helens, meanwhile an additional late 500 (LJLA - Liverpool ONE) is now operated by Stagecoach as as Merseytravel contact due to Arriva withdrawing the late evening commercial 500.
Just a few contracts remain unconfirmed but are likely to remain with the current operators.

Aren't the Wirral 8xx routes due up?


RE: Merseytravel Contracts - buses7675 - 20/09/2012 17:45

Not that I'm aware of, they weren't in Mr T's original list and no timetable/VOSA info has been online for them so if they were up it would look like Cumfybus have retained them but I'm not sure they were.
