In the (unlikely) event Warrington's Own Buses decided to continue running the X5 to Manchester Airport on a commercial basis, would that affect the proposed Bee Network 288?
Is there a link available to a list of which routes are part of this franchise /
Thx

I think it's behind a tendering login. A copy and paste I've seen from someone else is:

330 isn't missing seen in the Stockport list...why would it move from Ashton & what would Ashton get to replace it

TfGM don't have to allocate buses to their current depots. If they did that for all routes they'll be allocating a service to Macclesfield and another to Warrington. And note some of the proposed Wythenshawe routes aren't ones Arriva North West currently have, but they may have been ones Arriva submitted bids for and lost out to another operator.
If 330 is Stockport to Ashton, presumably TfGM decided which end it would be most cost-effective to operate it from.
