I've just walked down Derby Road in Birkenhead and every stop has its timetable missing - is this the Merseytravel strategy?.. remove and replace later? Would it not be worth Stagecoach printing their own temporary ones and taping them up for the 1 and 2 given that the changes to these services are really quite drastic given the route changes?

It would only take a driver an afternoon on overtime to go around each stop with a load of temporary Stagecoach timetables, surely that's better than nothing or wrong information? If I ran Rock Ferry I'd have done something like this as soon as I found out that Merseytravel hadn't updated the proper timetables.

Problem 1, Stagecoach don't own the bus stops so can't do that.
Problem 2, drivers are there to drive buses,I doubt the unions would be happy with them being sent out to change timetables.
