Im sure we aren't seeing the end of Arriva in Bolton , im sure TfGM will want Arriva to stay put as it keeps both of the big incumbents First and Stagecoach on there toes. |

34 is better kept at SH but you can add 375/385 and 320 to that list Bring Back Arriva Skelmersdale |

RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot
Like I've said before if Bolton does close and I'm not sure what the latest is regarding the lease as the lease is almost up on the building and the following routes I've heard could goto the following depots: 362/575 St Helens Depot 10s Wythenshawe Depot I guess its just a case of just wait and see |

While this did indeed work for Bluebus it was actually new to Burnley and Pendle |

It was quite a constant period of change, Stagecoach pulled out in 2000 when Blazefield took over, then around 2001 Blazefield couldn't make it pay, so thus sold the Bolton operations to Blue Bus. |
