RE: Avon Buses
Rumour or not it would make sense in the long run if they had a yard in Liverpool especially now that have increased their route mileage in Liverpool. A yard with engineering facilities would be a bonus and would save on towing fees which are not cheap and time when a vehicle breaks down not only that it would also save on tunnel fees after all it doesn;t matter if bus moves between Wirral and Liverpool out of service or in service they are still charged a tunnel toll

RE: Avon Buses
Buying HTL however would not be the way to go about getting a depot in Liverpool, almost all the HTL routes are tenders and most their Buses are only on lease

RE: Avon Buses
As I said above I work at Avon and highly doubt they be buying out HTL or anywhere of that matter.
I think this rumour should be put to bed until something official happens

On the corner of Wilson Road and Depot Road Huyton, route 10A turns off Wilson Road about a hundred yards short.

This could give a new meaning to the idea of HTL Head Office receiving a visit from the Avon Lady.

RE: Avon Buses
Wouldnt Huyton be a bit too far out for where the majority of Avon's Liverpool routes are ?
