GHA are asking passengers to name their Beartown buses. The persons who nominate the names which get picked get 6 month passes to use on the Beartown routes: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=10153713792751202&id=235026766201

They've also updated the Timetables page on their website: http://www.ghacoaches.co.uk/timetables/ (well made some updates to it.)

The timetable for the 45 Warrington to Northwich service is hopelessly out of date.

There are numerous mistakes and out-of-date timetables but it actually looks like they've done something now. The latest 88 timetable can be found on http://ghagold.co.uk/

From the VOSA thread, GHA is revising the Warrington services 16(A) and 45 from 14th December, as well as introducing a 46 which interestingly will extend from Warrington to Gemini.
I wonder whether the 46 will operate along the 33's route to Westbrook and then Gemini.

Thinking about timings, it is odd that GHA's 46 is to terminate at Northwich town centre, so it can't simply be a 'run 5 minutes before' idea again.
Purely speculation, but I wonder whether the 45 and 46 will interwork which could allow for an arrangement something like the following:

45 out
0922 Warrington
1015 Northwich

46 in
1018 Northwich
1107 Warrington, arr.
1110 Warrington, dep.
1128 Gemini

46 out
1131 Gemini
1149 Warrington, arr.
1152 Warrington, dep.
1245 Northwich

45 in
1248 Northwich
1337 Warrington

16 out
1340 Warrington
1355 Dallam

16 in
1401 Dallam
1415 Warrington

One of the 88 branded Enviros was on the 27 route on Friday. This morning I've seen a Dee Bee Solo on the 88 route.

It was reported a while back that GHA were trying to get the Park & Ride contract in Chester. Stagecoach have kept the contract: http://england.unitedkingdom-tenders.co.uk/92255_Park_and_Ride_in_Chester_City_Centre_2015_Chester

This has been discussed over the last few weeks in the Stagecoach Chester & Wirral thread.

Yes this is true, we passed the Pre tender qualification stage and our bid was second place to Stagecoach's and they then only beat GHA by 4% in the quality element.

We could be there next time!
