Halton to Merge with Merseyside?

RE: Halton to Merge with Merseyside?
Most areas surrounding the present Merseytravel council areas have always been envious of what Merseytravel have been able to do with there bus and train services , to be honest we have an excellent bus and train network , so why not pass some of the expertise on to Cheshire West , West Lancashire and Halton . More joined up thinking instead of the joined up thinking stopping at the county boundaries , if that had happened earlier im sure Arriva would have kept Skelmersdale Depot.
