Unusually for Merseytravel, the 831 timetable doesn't seem to have a map included (beyond the sketch on the cover).
Not all Merseytravel timetables have a route map , single journey routes usually try to cram as much information on to the page and the route is usually done in text format.
Interesting to see the short journey on the 68 now numbered 68E - good to see an old tradition of adding an 'E' to the number when on a short journey is making comeback.
i know its only a summer thing but i think the 12/13 will really struggle, it was put up to every 10 mins for a reason as i would say apart from the 10 saga the 12/13 are the busiest routes in liverpool

Weren't some people on here even saying recently that the 12/13 deserved deckers?

NB: I have only used these routes myself a couple of times, so do not know the daily usage patterns.
To drop the frequency over the last few years on some routes in the summer there must be a marked decrease in general patronage , but this happens on lots of routes usually in Liverpool and some in St Helens .
Despite the frequency dropping on these services over the summer months I'm guessing that for example 2 12s or 2 13s will end up turning up together like what happened the other Saturday when I was waiting for one at Page Moss

As for changes to 61 I noticed the additonal evening peak running time is done away with and unless traffic conditions on Long Lane isn't as bad as normal I can't see them keeping to time
