There are still some missing timetables that were on the old site, ie' the timetable for school services to Birkenhead Academy (700-3/5/6) that started in September and the X5 (Maghull-Trafford Centre) starting in December.
The first newly added timetable updates I've noticed on the new website are up today!
Valid from 4th November 2012:
17/17A/17B (St Helens - Widnes)
The two Route 17A Saturday afternoon buses funded by Merseytravel are withdrawn. (All the other times are unchanged.)
http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/travellin...02012).pdf
166/188/266/288 (Garston circulars)
Route 166: an extra Monday to Saturday bus is introduced, departing Liverpool South Parkway at 0735. The Saturday times are changed.
Route 266: the 0735 bus from Liverpool South Parkway is withdrawn.
Route 266 and 288: all Monday to Saturday buses are rerouted to serve Springwood Avenue and Springwood Crematorium, so they no longer serve Speke Road and the New Mersey Retail Park.

Travel News Update
Planned changes between 04 - 10 November 2012
http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/travel-up...vember.pdf
The following services are changing on 04 November:
17A (St Helens - Widnes)
Saturday afternoon buses departing St Helens at 1803 and Widnes at 1728 are withdrawn.
All the other times are unchanged.
166/188/266/288 (Garston circulars)
Monday to Saturday daytime buses will be rerouted to serve Springwood Avenue.
Some times will be changed.
Slightly misleading that news update for the Garston Circulars as it is only the 266/288 that are re-routed, the 166/188 remain as they are as detailed in the full timetable in the previous post!
Does make sense withdrawing the 17A journey on a Saturday - the only reason it was provided in the first instance is because there was previously a gap between the last 17A journey and the commencement of the 17B but alterations since this time have rectified this.
Valid from 29th October 2012:
(Must have missed this one last week, not as easy to find new timetables now!)
17/17A/117 (West Kirby or Moreton - Clatterbridge Hospital)
Routes 17: the first bus from West Kirby now runs 10 minutes earlier.
(Route 117 is unchanged.)

(All the other times are unchanged.)

(Route 161 is unchanged.)

Halton Transport routes 17 and 26 also change from the 11th Novmeber so new timetables for those should be up soon, interestingly the route 17 timetable will replace the last issue only 7 days after it became valid!
Halton Transport's own timetable for
17/17A/17B (St Helens - Widnes) is on their website now, valid from 11th November 2012:
http://home.btconnect.com/haltontranspor...121111.pdf
Interestingly this does show the Merseytravel services operated by HTL Buses (quite rare for an operator to show other operators services on its own timetables) however it does still show that Saturday only Merseytravel 17A which was withdrawn from this weekend.
Similarly their new
26 (Cronton - West Bank) timetable is now online, valid from 11th November 2012:
http://home.btconnect.com/haltontranspor...121111.pdf
More versions of the 17 timetable also exist online.
From the Halton Council Website, valid from 11th November 2012:
17 (St Helens - Widnes)
http://www3.halton.gov.uk/lgnl/policyand...,11,12.pdf
Timetables for some other routes should be available here too however some of the links on the page don't work!
The other inaccuracy with the 17/17A timetable above apart from including the recently withdrawn 17A journeys is that it does not include the early Sunday 17B journeys run for Merseytravel by Hattons
Valid from 17th December 2012:
1A (New Brighton - Birkenhead)
New Route 1A is introduced by Impera.
Running every 30 minutes during Monday to Saturday daytimes, the service links Birkenhead Bus Station with Woodside, Seacombe and New Brighton.
http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/travellin...02012).pdf
39/X39 (West Kirby - New Brighton/Calday Grammar School - New Brighton)
Route 39A is withdrawn. All evening and all Sunday buses are withdrawn.
The times are changed. Buses are rerouted to serve Town Meadow.
Buses are rerouted to run via Magazine Lane in New Brighton, instead of a part of Rowson Street.
One Monday to Friday morning and one Monday to Friday afternoon bus is renumbered X39 - these buses extend to start or finish at Calday Grange Grammar School in Caldy.

Thats an interesting innovation going direct from Woodside to Seacombe on the 1A beats having to go round the houses unlike the 411
Its basically a 411 between new brighton and seacombe then a 409 from seacombe to birkenhead bit pointless tbh cant see it lasting
