The April changes are now up on the Future Bus Service Changes page.
There is still a few changes missing from that page
Earlier this week the new timetables for the Maghull circulars were up on Merseytravels website but now they seem to have disappeared?

I seem to recall when the consultation was taking place, there being 5 journeys on the draft timetable for this service but the first journey was taken out by the 714 and the last journey (a 1705 journey) was taken out by a short 152.
The last 152 (1710 off St Helens) runs all the way to Ormskirk too so that also changed.
Notice that neither the 152 or 153 are mentioned in the future bus service changes. The new 152 timetable isn't on the site yet either.
There is no planned changes to the 152 as far as I am aware.
One more up today too, new timetable for the 56 (Liverpool - Netherton)

Merseytravel are already displaying the new timetables for the changes that come into effect on the 22nd in the Netherton area. What has really surprised me is that the daytime 135/235 is now to operate between Netherton and Dingle as this was not originally mentioned in the Sefton Bus Review. As there will be so many variations to these routes would it not have been more sensible to give these variations different numbers (137/237?) as I am sure it will lead to confusion on a grand scale?

Also, I note that there are no new timetables for the 159 evening/Sunday service being displayed even though the timetable is available on line. Is this service to be introduced or not?
