*Thumbs up*
I didn't say that at all. I have said numerous times I think the 7 needs upgrading to every 20 minutes or it needs upgrading with larger vehicles if the 30 minute frequency was retained. As the 7 is at the moment the frequency is too low and the Pulsars which operate the route are too small - personally I think the frequency increase is far more likely to happen but only time is going to tell
I'm sorry but Huyton does not need any more circular services - especially on the routes you have proposed. It already has the dedicated 8/9 circular service with the 7 and 10B also providing capacity between the city centre, Edge Lane and other parts of Huyton. The 6 was withdrawn because of low passenger numbers (with those who did use the 6 now using alternative services) so a replacement for the 6 isn't needed now and it's unlikely it ever will be

I do apologies for snapping. Had a long 12 hour shift yesterday and kept burning myself at work didn't helped either.
I get the picture now about Huyton, I don't live there so i couldn't really tell what its like on a day to day basic thats why i came up with this proposal. And yes you and myself can agree on one thing about the 7. A 20 mins frequency makes sense. The only problem with it is between Huyton - Warrington where the numbers are low as i have been on full journey a number of times. My other solution to the 7 is to increase to every 15 minutes with 2 (7H as a example) terminate at Huyton/Elizabeth Rd and the other 2 (7) to Warrington. If 30mins retains then double deck would be ideal to ease capacity between Huyton and City especially at peaktimes. Sapphire X1 also has the same problem.
And @ MPTE
Service 15 less frequent than 10B? Explain this..

Don't worry about it. We all have our bad days
