Due to weather conditions in Runcorn Services 61, 79C, 82A and X4 will operate between Liverpool and terminate at Runcorn Old Town & Services 1, 2, 200 and X30 are unable to operate at this time & Services 110 will operate between Warrington and terminate at Runcorn Old Town, the Busway is closed right now
All back to normal now by the looks of bustimes, but Ashcrofts and Warrington's have been running down there all day so why Arriva couldn't, I don't know
3101, 3102, 3105 and 3106 have entered service with Runcorn, 01 is currently out on the 110, 02 on the 82A, 05 was on the 110 yesterday and 06 was took off before, I'd assume either 3104 is VOR or it's in the shop for removal of it's "We Love Manchester" branding
Unfortunately from last night 3202 has had a smash in Runcorn unsure what have caused it, thinking for those who are involved.

It was at Halton High school crossing on the Busway, the bus was 'Not In Service' when this happened, again unsure what have caused it? but I think a car maybe involved? & what I know, the bus is not going to be back in Service for some time

I've seen a photo of 3202 and judging by the severe damage it sustained to the front (similar to what happened to 2941 in 2023) I'd highly doubt it will see service again.
