St Helens Bus Network Review

[St Helens Rider]

RE: St Helens Bus Network Review
According to a Merseytravel representative I spoke to today, Arriva were going to route the 156 via Ravenhead Retail Park but were feared of it getting stuck round there at times of heavy traffic/congestion and thus wanted to make it a fast run to Waterside. Apart from the Retail Park, it's the same routing as the 33A in the changes of 2006, coming onto Marshalls Cross just after Robins Lane. Would have been a better idea to go along Sherdley Road and past the Hospital to get more custom as a lack of passengers was cited as the reason the 33A was eventually re-routed.
