2652 has arrived here on loan today

Arriva Buses Wales have registered two new services tendered by Cheshire West from January 26th.

Service 101 Ellesmere Port - Wolverham - Cheshire Oaks

Service 101A Ellesmere Port - Wolverham - Deeside Industrial Estate - Queensferry.

So this is in response to the withdrawal of the 5. What an awful disjointed mess this will become now with separate routes operated by the same company.

I'm wondering why this was done. Is it because of falling under different tendering bodies who find it difficult to co-ordinate with each other, or maybe because the 5 was struggling to keep to time going all the way and back?

Nothing registered from Deeside Ind EST to Mold at all by looks of it

That section of route has been registered as the F5 service.

Ah right many thanks

The F5 only runs from Mold to Asda Queensferry not Deeside. It’s pathetic that Arriva Cymru are running empty to operate the 101 and the route has been cut in half.
