"The bid will support four services - the X1, X1a, 62 and the Hive shuttle (13a).
The routes identified in this bid support access to existing employment areas and
will help to attract new jobs into the area.

The development of the X1a service will enable the residents of Widnes to
access jobs in Liverpool. The introduction of this route would support routes to
employment in nearby Halewood and Speke leading onto Liverpool and the
potential employment opportunities the Superport will bring, which is envisaged
to bring a combined 28,000 jobs and apprenticeships to the Liverpool City
Region over the next 20 years.
The proposed X1a will provide a half hourly service linking Widnes to key employment
sites in Liverpool. This route will provide a new link between Widnes and Liverpool
opening up job opportunities which have previously been difficult to access by public
transport. "

All of the above is mainly proposition and planned though.
