Some of the changes proposed seemed very odd. E.g. why plan to keep the 42b between East Didsbury and Piccadilly? Thank goodness the authority has stepped in.

Yes, the report with the link above states about 1/3 of the way down that those routes will be retained.

My copy and paste has proved odd but quotes the relevant box confirming this.

You would think all routes in Bolton and Wigan are safe with them getting funded until they replan the depots and routes as I can't see tfgm keeping the current network as it stands as they can rework routes and who runs what once they get ownership and time to look at patterns of flows
