Will this be like Manchester and be by depot or something different like by bus service? |

Given franchising is happening are what routes if any in the City Region are likely not to be included in the franchising? Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWlqEkh...wHyRfm5C_A |

I would say the most complicated one would be Southport's 375 and 385 because there is only a minimal section in the region and tge same in the TfGM one with the majority of it working through Lancashire. |

Talk of the 1/X1 not being included otherwise i understand everything else will pass over to LCR, Includes the 360 which hardly gets into Merseyside, serving like 5 stops For Blog Posts Containing all the latest in the local Bus Scene The 2002 Bus Blog Subscribe to my Youtube Channel, Updated regularly!

Roughly 15% of the service is in Merseyside,the majority is in Lancashire. |

If its going off current depots like Manchester has then i assume 375/385 will be included with Southport, but the 347 will continue as Stagecoach regardless as will the 2 and X2. Was jcksmnr |

The depot at Waverton has some room but , the X1 and 1 do require a fair few more buses . Maybe a case of something being withdrawn to allow the buses in up there . |
