Commander 2588 had suspension problems while working an 80 this morning, but the driver eventually managed to limp it into Liverpool One.

Travelled on Myllennium 2467 last night on my journey home on the 80 and it was a terrible ride. The vibrations, not just when idling, but when moving, were terrible and my body still hadn't recovered 10 minutes after I'd got off the thing!!

Rode this a few days back on the 79D - still seemed in good nick tbh, a slight shame to see them going - I wonder what will be the replacement ? Might see the return of the DLA's ?

That's fantastic news for passengers - they won't have to worry about climbing-up steps and having an uncomfortable ride on flat seats on an ancient antique when they're both withdrawn! This is also great news for Speke, as a depot, as they'll FINALLY gain the status of a fully low-floor fleet like they should have got when they received their 44 brand-new 'deckers!

Leathers lane in halewood is now closed at the junction with wood road due to a serious incident involving a taxi early this morning this will mean diversions and disruption to all bus services serving halewood.
