Sunday is the retail parks busiest day, the car parks often full with people parking on Stadium road. I agree it would probably grab a few extra passengers

I have just realised why it can not happen , on a sunday the route starts back from Eastham Ferry rather than Mill Park and the time used to get on and off the retail park is used to get to Eastham Ferry instead.

512 failed in Tollemache Road at 15.22 today. The driver said it was slipping into neutral all the time. It probably would've made it to Claughton Village so my fellow passenger (1) and myself could've caught something from there into Birkenhead.

RE: Avon Buses
Quick question, does anybody know if through journeys can still be made on the 84/85 from Heswall to say Brom cross via Mill Park? I know you used to be able to stay on. It switches from 85 to an 84 at Mill Park, but as they're now both in separate timetables I was wondering if this still applies. Thanks

The 85 runs Heswall to Clatterbridge, and the 84 Clatterbridge to Raby Drive. You can travel on the same bus, but will need to pay twice, although cheaper to buy a day ticket
