seems to confirm Arriva`s reasons for pulling out of the service,it wasn`t a very equal partnership,with Stagecoach not thinking it worhwhile in extra investment replacing the Arriva journeys,But including the X8 it`s still seven buses an hour to Chester

But it is not 7 buses at all stops though is it .

it`s 3 different routes and they all take far too long to get to Chester anyway,perhaps they could divert the 1 and 2 via queensferry to make it even slower

Arriva need to bring back an hourly express service omitting Ellesmere Port and Cheshire oaks etc like the X11 used to do

that could do quite well,it`s going to cheshire oaks that puts the spanner in the times of the chester routes,even before any congestion ruins it further

I would certainly welcome a resurrected X11 - I find it annoying how the only way to get from Wirral to Chester on an Arriva pass is via Liverpool and Runcorn. I actually did that journey the other day - it took about 4 hours!

Or half hourly 1C/10C which Arriva renumbered 401.

The 401 was essentially just the same as the 1 and 2 wasn't it? The whole point is that they need a *proper* express service to Chester

That route and map is Wrong for the 2 as between Birkenhead and Bromborough the 2 is going to follow the 38 route making buses along Derby Rd, Bebington Stn and Port Sunlight approx every 15 with both 38 and 2 serving there

Hooray! Times on bus stops around Broadgreen now reflect the changes on 5th September ...
The really funny thing was they had 2 different sets of times at the bus stops, but neither was correct until some time in the last few days ...
