I remember the 883 as I used to live on Mackets Lane in Halewood and used to walk down for the first 79 into town of a morning and the 883 always passed me on Higher Road and Dart DK04SUH was almost always on it. Wonder who the new operator will be?

DK04SUH used to do that first trip as it was a lot busier than the rest (so the minibus at the time wasn't big enough) - DK04SUH used to do one round trip I think then go onto the 111 and a minibus put on the 883 thereafter.
According to notice on bus stop, 883 is being withdrawn - I assume that means completely
I hope that's a mistake as it's a well used link to Speke and the Airport
Rohill Harrier X338 SKJ has broken down outside Liverpool Royal hospital, fitter in attendance!
We will still be operating the 898 and 899 service from 22/01/2017. The first 4 trips on the 898 are now commercial.
The 883 will be operated by another company. Sad to see it go as it has been operated by HTL for over 14 years back when the Joblink was in operation it was known as 883 PAPA.

Am I correct that the 883 used to go beyond Wilson Road up to Prescot as well?
First route I was ever taught that at HTL too, on my second morning working there, good memories :-)
