All commercial bar the 492.
Any of those commercial services duplicated for part of their length, meaning passengers could use an alternative service, and change services en route?
There is a time when you have to say enough is enough with regards dropped journeys , looking at the amount of dropped journeys yesterday.

It looks from the outside that Avon have a major problem with staff , it must be very demoralising for the remainder of the staff left , especially on the routes where the dropped journeys happen , when the passengers ask them what is happening
Judging by what I have seen during the week some journeys have been leaving Birkenhead empty so I think that passengers are already making their own minds up and have sought out alternative means of getting to their destinations.
Unfortunately for the public of Wirral I think Avon will win some contracts in the upcoming Wirral review if they do I feel really sorry for anyone who uses those services as they will get a third class service judging on Avon,s performance over the past month or so
I hope they dont win any extra contracts when you got A2B Travel who are reliable and set to lose the majority of their work
More problems today - this time on the 84, 85, 135, 159 and the favourite for cancelled journeys 495.
They have won the 145 and 124/125
