Curtailing the route might help with timings by reducing journey times by 6/7 minutes in each direction, as even though maps show the 62 and 82A are following exactly the same route, they currently have different timings, like the 62 gets about 5/6 minutes less to get between Murdishaw and Runcorn High Street.
It's odd that they are continuing to use completely different service numbers for the 62 and 82A despite them following the same route though.
Incidentally, there is a new Halton route map available on the Arriva website for when the Silver Jubilee Bridge is reopened.
