Surely the 38 should be extended to Ormskirk, or at least alternate journeys.

I hope it is replaced in some form as people travel to Ormskirk for the Uni, Work and the Market

I had a feeling this would happen as the timetable is so irregular for journeys to Ormskirk and unless a service is a standard frequency, people tend to struggle with the times.

Anyway, back to today's business:

PC0001141/294 - ARRIVA MERSEYSIDE LTD, 73 ORMSKIRK ROAD, LIVERPOOL, L9 5AE
Variation Accepted: Operating between Liverpool John Lennon Airport and Liverpool ONE Bus Station given service number 500 effective from 12-Apr-2015. To amend Route and Timetable.

PC1063546/2 - FREEDOM TRAVEL NORTH LTD T/A SMITHS OF MARPLE, 2 BLACKBROOK GLADE, BUXTON ROAD, CHAPEL-EN-LE-FRITH, HIGH PEAK, SK23 0PJ
Cancellation Accepted: Operating between Chapel-en-le-Frith, Market Street and Chapel-en-le-Frith, Market Street given service number 200 effective from 03-Apr-2015.

Cant see it, Arriva would not do anything like that without getting Funding for it and Lancashire CC are very tight on their Budget

If its profitable it wouldnt be getting withdrawn obviously! Or it wouldnt have been threatened and chopped and changed so much over recent years. And of course someone else will obviously jump at the chance to run it!

I think its Partly down to the fact of the Distance the route is away from the Depot and i also think its Partly down to the gaps in the service at School starting/letting out Time.

Maybe someone else will step in to operate the Service as its only been put online today that SLT are pulling the service.
