Merseytravel gain London Style Bus Powers

RE: Merseytravel gain London Style Bus Powers
Just look at the London model and each route will come up for tender , Merseytravel will dictate vehicle type be it single or double decker and frequency and they will have to tender on those sort of characteristics .

It will then be Merseytravel that tinker the route network then not the bus companies .

Im sure the big guns will be looking closely at any legislation to look for any restraint of trade .

Be interesting what would happen if one or more of the big four pulled the plug in a metropolitan area .
