RE: D&G Bus
Interesting note on their website about the 130: "Passengers travelling between Handforth and Wythenshawe travel for free until the end of August." As a further note the lack of trips to/from Wythenshawe and the Start/Finish times do not look good as are useless for workers For Blog Posts Containing all the latest in the local Bus Scene The 2002 Bus Blog Subscribe to my Youtube Channel, Updated regularly!

RE: D&G Bus
I notice the message about the 288 operating to a reduced service has disappeared from the D&G Bus website. Does that mean it's gone down to a 2 hourly Mon-Sat daytime service with no evening or Sunday services permanently? While not a North West service I find the 32X message amusing. They are saying you must make a reservation to get in to Alton Towers but say space on the bus is limited and will be offered on a first come first served basis. |

Maybe this is for another few months at least. |

RE: D&G Bus
Has anyone else noticed D&G have taken on a fair few new drivers lately? At least 5 of them I recognise as ex arriva macc & winsford drivers. |

RE: D&G Bus
At Wincham there are a couple of newbies and all the furloughed drivers are now back, although 1 has left. Arriva Macc drivers are fed up of traveling to Winsford so a few more may depart soon if Gaw End doesn't reopen in the near future.

Yep I can see that happening, arriva are struggling I think at the moment. |

RE: D&G Bus
If Gaw End doesnt open in the near future is there anyway that D&G could possibly take over the work that Arriva do in/around Macclesfield? |

RE: D&G Bus
D&G could possibly take over macc aye if they're interested enough & arriva struggle like they are currently. |

Not sure it would be worthwhile for D&G to have outstations in both Macclesfield and Wincham. In the case of Macclesfield maybe Centrebus would acquire somewhere as a shared D&G/High Peak facility to prevent issues if snow closes the Cat and Fiddle road in the winter? Or maybe if D&G had a base in Macc Centrebus might want Cheshire routes to transfer to D&G? |
