RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot - Barney - 10/07/2014 19:57 The new 52 timetable is now available. As expected the 52 evening service is withdrawn but the 52A is now every 20 minutes. What I find astonishing is that the last 52A from Liverpool is 23·09!! Whenever I have been out in the city centre, since the withdrawal of the night bus 55N, I have got the last 52A at 23·50 which is invariably standing room only. I understand that Arriva are in the business to make money, but clearly somebody in the back office doesn't have a grasp of the situation. I read Arriva's latest publication today and there is a short article about the importance of pensioners tapping in their smart cards so tbat Arriva can be reimbursed. What Arriva clearly doesn't see is the fact that many late evening travellers use Arriva's own weekly or monthly passes or Saveaways, none of which are recorded by their all-singing, all-dancing ticket machines. It seems to me that Arriva are very keen to claim money from Merseytravel but not so keen to provide an after-hours service for those who have paid for their Arriva contracts. I think that the recent loss of the late 47 is another example of Arriva's decision to cut services and maximise profits.

From my experience most passengers travel beyond that point. It's another 4 miles to Netherton. If you know the area, the 55 takes a very different route to Old Roan station and therefore is not an alternative for those wanting to travel to Netherton.

Indeed, the last 52A leaves Liverpool ONE at 2339 and continues to Netherton RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot - Gillmoss 0324 - 14/07/2014 09:52 Does anyone know if 4432 is running today and what route its on thanks RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot - Gillmoss 0324 - 14/07/2014 09:58 (14/07/2014 09:52)Gillmoss 0324 Wrote: Does anyone know if 4432 is running today and what route its on thanks Edit just boarded it on the 60 ;-) RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot - M113 YKC - 14/07/2014 20:38 2218 is on a late 52/52A board tonight! RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot - X782 NWX - 15/07/2014 15:22 Unusually a Gemini is on the 62. Pretty certain it is 4214 (if not it's 4208) RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot - MPTE1955 - 15/07/2014 19:21 4411 was on 52 today, not really unusual though, as for the gem on 62, well deckers on there are few and far between. |
