Some journeys on service 191 are extended to run to/from Hazel Grove, while services 23/23A, 42, 179, 370 and X5 will be re-routed on arrival into Stockport bus station via Heaton Road and Mersey Square.

While the southernmost road in Stockport bus station is being repaired, many buses come into Stockport via Mersey Square anyway. So maybe they are just formalising a popular routing, as many people find this a useful stop.

On Thursday evening I noticed 2 short red Tridents in the yard at Stockport displaying Shuttle Bus. They are probably ex-London examples that were used for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. I didn't check but did not notice them this evening, so maybe they were just stopping off here.
