It's actually being withdrawn on 24th July - details on VOSA thread. Definitely agree they have killed this service off. Wonder if Diamond Bus will increase the full route to every 30 minutes to compensate.

There was a President on that route on Saturday and I reported a few week ago that an eco Gemini was on there. Definitely a waste on a route that can only be described as dwindling.

RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - motormayhem1 - 17/08/2016 18:11 Maybe to have all the hybrids in one depot and would give birkenhead a standard decker as wasnt they suppose to be getting a couple of Enviro400 RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - motormayhem1 - 17/08/2016 20:05 I think it was partially funded by the green bus fund if memory serves me right.

Were these hybrids straightforward purchases by Arriva, or was there some public money (via TFGM) involved? If the latter, there is normally a guarantee that such buses would stay in Greater Manchester for five years. The whole batch of 44 Volvo B5LHs were purchased with Green Bus Funding I would have thought 3126-35 will be the only Pulsars that go to Bolton personally but it won't be long before we find out |
