If happen to live West of Arrowe Park Hospital its no bus , if you live to the east there is a marginally better chance of being in the catchment area for one of the 110X or 118X

East Wirral has a much higher population density and is much less affluent on average than West Wirral. I'm sure Merseytravel will have some sort of dataset for household income and car ownership which helps them to work out which routes are most necessary.

That said, I'm sure a Heswall-West Kirby-Arrowe Park circular would see some use. This would connect to East and South Wirral via the 118X at Arrowe Park.

All things considered though, we are lucky to have any public transport at all on Christmas Day, and I am grateful for what we've got. I personally feel that a cross-river link is something that should be provided and would be used.
