GHA once used Dennis Trident V220MEV on the 88 route. I don't think there are any low bridges on the route so it's just the airport tunnels on the A538 Wilmslow Rd they need to be able to get through, which I'm sure deckers can get through.

With the 18 route going closer to the Wythenshawe depot than the 88 route it might have been it was easier to do a 3 way swap than a straight swap, or it could have been they weren't sure whether the 88 route had any low bridges so did a swap to be on the safe side?
