I had an inkling high peak would've gone in for the 19 prestbury route as they like having most of the macc town local routes. The 130 will certainly be interesting, i've still not worked out yet which route it'll be taking from cheadle or why arriva have changed the route slightly. Probably best guess is to shorten journey times & improve the reliability which is apparently the reason for the mon - sats going hourly.

39 - Ain't got the foggiest idea yet who's won that.
82 - Probably be arriva chester IMHO, although whoever wins the contract seriously needs to sort of the timings as it constantly runs late. An arriva driver earlier this wk said that for some reason it's no longer going to run from the bus exchange, anybody an idea??????

I've been told that the idea is for it to work into the railway station, mirroring the 84. Was also told by a driver the idea is for the 82 and 84 to provide a 30 minute service in between Tarvin and Chester but I can't really figure out how this would work.
