Considering Go Northwest are planning on increasing services from next Monday how are they planning to do this considering the current situation?

Are most services from next week going to be a mixture of Go Northwest and other operators?

I know 41 from what's already been said will be contracted out is this all journey's or just some on the route?

The increase is purely down to the number of drivers returning to work. Other operators will still be doing some of the work.

Normal fares resumed from Monday 19th on all services apart from 53 and 67/67a to coincide with the service increase.

Will any of the Citaros enter service or will it only be once the current issues are sorted

I know I asked the original question about the Citaroes entering service next week but I can't really see them entering service now until the strike is sorted whenever that will be as what's been already said from next week some duties on 41 are going to be contracted out with other operators operating them.

I’ve been sent a photo of around 15 GNW B9’s at Selwyns Sharston depot.

Widnes coaches have also been offered to use GNW veichles but not sure if they have took them up on the offer.
