Greater Manchester Service Changes
RE: Greater Manchester Service Changes
Looking on the TfGM website, there appears to be some updates to the service changes that took place/scheduled to take place over the recent weekend (25/26 October):
  • 21: Service will terminate in Agecroft, near the Commerce Park rather than in Clifton at the old 66/70 terminus (would imagine this is due to full size buses being unable to turn around in Clifton).
  • 41A: Evening and Sunday journeys haven't been withdrawn after all. Stagecoach still running the journeys, but 389 also extending to Yew Tree estate during evenings and Sundays too. Means that both services serve the estate at around the same time (around quarter to the hour).
  • 520/715: Looks like the Sunday 715 service is being continued to be operated by Warrington's Own Buses until 8 November, running to Wigan. Vision Bus are running the Monday-Saturday evening journeys on service 520 until 8 November, when they start the Sunday service too.
  • 583: Warrington's Own Buses are continuing to run the Monday-Saturday evening and Sunday daytime service between Leigh and Hag Fold via the old route until 8 November. Means those journeys are still running via Westleigh, which is also served by new evening and Sunday journeys from Vision Bus' 595 service. From 8 November, the evening/Sunday journeys will run via Diamond's 583 route between Leigh and Shakerley.
  • 639/640/641: Warrington's Own Buses continuing to run the 640/641 via the old route until 8 November, when the services are re-routed away from Worsley Hall, which is served by new service 639, which started on Monday. So, services 639, 640 and 641 are all serving Worsley Hall until 8 November.

Also, some mistakes on the routes list on the TfGM website. The timetable for the new 129 between Farnworth and Higher Green has been allocated to the Middleton 129 service page. No timetable allocated to the Farnworth page. Service B3 has been removed but the 494 hasn't been added, following the re-numbering. Finally, Hulleys' X56 service between Glossop and Manchester has been added but no mention of the X57 between Sheffield and Manchester. The timetable for the X56, from Hulleys, mentions both services.
