Upcoming service changes in Merseyside

RE: Upcoming service changes in Merseyside
That's one point of view. As a matter of interest, which political party would you like to see in power within the LCR?

Until franchising is introduced the two main operators can make commercial decisions as to when or when not to run a service on any day of the year. Are you suggesting that Merseytravel should heavily subsidise routes that are not deemed commercially viable?

Also, for those of us with long memories, prior to 1986 when buses were under public control most services actually ran on Christmas Day as well as Boxing Day and New Year's Day.
