Now that 432/433/437 frequencies have reverted to 10 minutes will any buses be transferred out?
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - MPTE1955 - 28/07/2017 16:33
Probably not, frequency changes will only be for the school holidays and will return to normal in September

It really sounds like the purse strings are certaintly being pulled in at Laird Street
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - mr t - 29/07/2017 05:41
The 418/19 will all be 418s and only operate New Ferry - Birkenhead Bus Station

also means the status level of the garage is dropping. can't see it myself but there is a lot of chatter regards closing the place and the routes they keep coming over from Liverpool based depots.

I think it is more a case of streamlining the network with Arriva. There is the proposed introduction of the 408 however, this requires two additional buses that would have been used on the withdrawn services. The 410 will probably see a few amendments too, like removing journeys to Woodside when it clearly doesn't need to serve there in the evening. The 411 of an evening will be operated commercially by Arriva too and other tendered early morning services commercialised.

Unlikely its not long been done up they still have plenty of profitable routes

Being honest does the 410 really need to operate via Woodside , Birkenhead other than the shopping area looks an area of diminishing returns .
