Speke aren't short of buses sadly!...

Would be nice if those lovely presidents did come to replace 4118, 3313 and 3332 on the 699

They are certainly short of double deckers.

Thats probably the best way to describe the whole division!

Lol prob a bit behind the discussion on this, but i see the short Belle Vale journeys on 79 extended to Netherley in the New Year.

Unlikely as that would require an increase in the PVR. Also is it required? Beyond Belle Vale the 14 and 79c cover the route down Caldway Drive with the 79 providing a 10 minute service along Wood Lane. This is adequate as the heyday of housing along Wood Lane has long gone with many demolitions over the past ten years.

Increase in running time anddd PVR! Seems they actually care about the 79s now!

You do wonder if they have had VOSA mooching around on the route and noticed persistent late running .

That might be it, as Halton have changed their running times on the 14/61s about 3 times too in the last 6 mnths!

last time i checked wood lane has had brand new houses being built so there is reasons for the increase of PVR
