RE: GHA Group (Bryn Melyn, Vale Travel + Others)
Over the Easter weekend [3-5 April 2015] GHA started to re-locate its Macclesfield out station from the cramped yard on Heapy Street to larger premises off Moss Lane, next door to Henshaw's Waste Transfer Depot.

As of yet the yard has no facilities.

Five Optare Solo's were still at the Heapy Street yard at the time of this photograph.

First time in ages that one of these has appeared on the 130.

I thought Macclesfield operated some turn on the Sunday 130 with the service being shared with Tarvin. Although this could have ceased following the route going commercial

Move now completed with cabin etc on Moss Lane site and Heapy Street empty.

Word of warning, the depot is not visiable from public roads and is accessed through one of Henshaws HGV yards and at tea time today was secured by two gates. Also Large clear and prominent signage regarding consequences of trespassing.

All service 130 workings/duties are now operated by Macclesfield and will normally be worked with service 88 Enviro 200's.

I would just like to echo Ron's comments that our outstation at Macclesfield is located on a private estate and access to the our area is trough another private piece of property and therefore we are unable to allow any visitors without the express permission of the company.

That said we will always co-operate with enthusiasts by providing accurate and factual information to forums such as this and via our social media sites.

Due to all the extra routes gained from Denbighshire CC buses were sent from Ruabon this morning to Ruthin to operate with Ruabon drivers do to driver shortages in Ruthin, 6 buses will be allocated to Ruthin this week, probably Solo's or Dart's!!

No drivers have been sent from Ruabon to Ruthin, there is no current driver shortage at Ruthin following the TUPE of several drivers from M&H.

Versa's MX58 KZE/F are now allocated to Ruthin Depot primarily for service 76. No Darts are heading towards Ruthin.
