It does seam abit odd that a new vehicle has been swapped for an older one, does anyone know the reasoning behind this

I believe it was involved in a fatal incident in Wigan and as a result has been transferred to a different depot. This is common among all the big operators.

Does anyone know when Stagecoach South lancashire and Merseyside changed its name to Stagecoach South Lancashire, Liverpool, and Merseyside?

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
The name on the fleetcards is still Merseyside & South Lancs, so I highly doubt there's actually been a change...

That title is a mystery as both South lancashire and Merseyside are areas by definition , but Liverpool is a place and looks out of place in the title , anyhow if thats the case shouldnt Chester be in the title as well .

From 28/10 for approximately 3 weeks New Chester Road is closed in Birkenhead and all buses on 1&2 services are following the following diversions:

Route 1 will travel as normal to Argyle Street, then via Argyle Street South, Hinderton Road, Queen Street, Old Chester Road, Grove Road, Bedford Road, New Chester Road, then as normal route (omitting a section of New Chester Road).

Route 2 will travel as normal to Argyle Street, then via Argyle Street South, Hinderton Road, Queen Street, Old Chester Road, Grove Road, Bedford Road, New Chester Road, then as normal route (omitting a section of New Chester Road).

Basically after I checked the diversion out on Google Maps it seems there just following the 41/42 route into/out off Birkenhead Bus Station

That was the title used in an email to me recently, though, if the fleetcard is not showing Liverpool, then could it just be an error in the name of the company?
