I think it's just the software's way of saying 'indefinitely' because they don't know how long the timetable is valid for yet.
I think it's reasonable to say that most -- if not all -- of these timetables will change before 2021!

Considering that the size of the network is smaller than most cities and with now much reduced frequencies, I find £5.00 for an adult day rover quite shocking when you compare with other companies.
Surely the management must see that it's false logic to think that putting prices up and cutting services automatically means a better and/or more profitable business.
In the short term, they may well get more money, but it is clear the direction in which the company is going, and people are desperately searching for alternatives to bus travel (especially those on the 3/19/23/25 routes, which seem to be complained about endlessly).
I think the biggest impact will be the withdrawal of the £5 family return. In many cases, the fare is effectively being doubled. That will be the killer, as I know that was a fairly popular choice for families heading from Leigh to Warrington for a day's shopping.
I'm wondering when we're going to hear back from the 'network review' that has been hinted at for a while now.
The complaints about particular routes seem to be as high as ever since the cut in frequency during the day on some of the key routes and price hikes.

Network Warrington will be operating BttP (Bus to the Pub) again this year. The date is May 10th and will be covering areas such as Eccles, Salford, Gorton, Chorlton and Urmston.
Well, here it is.
Thanks to St Helens Rider for the following information given on the VOSA thread.
Hopefully we will find out some more intricate details over the coming weeks.
Changes to the
route and timetable of the following groups of services from 2nd June 2014:
5, 6/6A/7/7A/7C, 7A/10A/10C, 13/14/15, 17/17A, 19, 23/23A, 29*
Changes to the
timetable of the following groups of services from 2nd June 2014:
1/2, 3, 4/4A, 8/10/10X/8A/9, 11/12[/11A/12A], 16/16A, 18/18A, 20/20A/21/21A, 22, 25, 26/27, 28/28A, 30/31/32/32a, 45/46

With the cancellation of the 24's, I seriously hope and assume that the 25 will have an improvement in frequency.
On a separate note, there has also been a small management change, with some details available here:
