Bleak Hill Road will have the Rainford service (very sensibly renumbered 38A), area unserved Evenings & Sundays from Bleak Hill Road/Kiln Lane to Griffin Inn, Burrows Lane unserved completely at all times between Gillars Green Drive and the Wellington (no mention of this in the description at the top of the document unlike Liverpool Road).

Also we see the last vestiges of the 22 being withdrawn in the withdrawal of the 121/122. The 22 had ran for 50 years before Arriva scrapped it in 2006.

On a more positive note, the link between Knowsley Road and the Town Centre via Boundary Road and Duke Street returns on a 2 hourly basis with the introduction of the 153 - again prior to Arriva's 2006 changes, this corridor enjoyed 4 buses per hour daytime and hourly evenings/Sundays.
