However, in those days Litherland UDC and LCPT/Ribble worked in harmony and for the common good. Every spring an ancient LCPT decker, converted to open-top, was used to lop the overhanging branches of these trees along Gorsey Lane. The good news is that the new deckers are now on the likes of the 53 and 63. |

Aye Barney, it's nice to see deckers back on the 52/52A/55/56 routes again today after a six-day absence. Presumably someone has trimmed back the overhanging branches along these routes and the new deckers can safely use them without fear of further damage to upper deck windows and bodywork. But who's to be held responsible for such damage is a different matter... |

Is there any news on when Bootle is due to receive the DLPs that were previously mentioned in this thread? I presume it'll be two to replace 2226/35 |
