Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots

RE: Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots
You could also have the 22 as it was with Avon, and perhaps Merseytravel could have a new 83 route which goes West Kirby - Arrowe Park (via Greasby). A return trip takes 42 minutes if the old 83 timetable is anything to go by, more than enough time to interwork with the 80. The 82 could then extend to Heswall as a stand-alone route, giving a half hourly link between Heswall and West Kirby again (as it was right up until Avon ceased trading). Unless I’m missing something this doesn’t increase the PVR from what is available now.

The 2 proposals are odd. I’ve not seen it mentioned anywhere else but as I say Eastham Councillor Phil Gilchrist stated the proposal was Liverpool - Croft. Seems odd to run this section as it is already covered by other services. How many are ran out of Chester’s depot? Could that play a part in the proposals? As it’s ran out of two depots currently I believe.

The 38 is far too long, again I apologise for going off topic but couldn’t they have just reduced the 418/419 to hourly? They were good services. The 145/146 Birkenhead - Mill Park to a combined hourly frequency sounds good too. However I don’t know if this would cost more to implement them what’s available now. However they do waste money with the Moreton circulars running until 11pm at night. 38 should be West Kirby - Croft via Sandbrook (if this diversion can be squeezed in)
