RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
One or two buses have gone along Grange Lane and going towards St Helens, it looks like only two trips have gone that way looking at the tracker. Having done the turn off Gateacre Brow into Grange Lane in a VDL myself I just can't see that way ever being used as it is extremely tight and it only takes one car to be over the line and you are never making the turn. Oh Superman where are you now, when everything's gone wrong somehow, the men of steel, the men of power, are losing control by the hour.

Can confirm that I have seen several buses in both directions not using Grange Lane but sticking to the original diversionary route |

Both are out this morning but i do wonder the reason behind the Transfer, St Helens does need more Deckers but would this not leave Green Lane short.

Wouldn't leave them short overall would it as GL got one or two of SH's 09 Pulsars didn't they, so I would imagine that they can cope with the two losses. |
