Red4 is being withdrawn, along with Blackburn Bus' Red Express X41 service from 26 January 2020. Some journeys on service 483 will be re-numbered 482 and re-routed to run to Ramsbottom and then on to Accrington via Rawtenstall, so a Rosso presence will remain in the area, while the link between Bury and Accrington is restored after the 484 was withdrawn and partly replaced by Red4 and X41.

Transdev do confirm that the Red4 is losing £300,000 per year with Diamond Bus running competing services 472/474. The X41 has dropped in usage, as passengers are using the 464 to connect with the X43 at Rawtenstall to get from Accrington to Manchester.

Also will be some changes from 5 January 2020 in Rawtenstall and Bacup with the 7 and 8 merged into one route between Burnley and Todmorden via Bacup, while Rawtenstall-Edgeside section is replaced by the 10.
