Interesting and true about Liverpool & Southport having both been in Lancashire, unlike Runcorn & Widnes, prior to the creation of Merseyside. It occurs to me that Warrington will be left out in the cold for being neither part of Greater Manchester nor the Liverpool City Region.

My bright hope for Stagecoach could be a Liverpool or St Helens - Runcorn - Altrincham express route. It would link their Merseyside & Manchester networks! Also there is surprisingly no St Helens - Runcorn direct link at present.

Deckers would be ideal for the X1 but they wouldn't be suitable due to the X1 serving most of the busway which as low bridges along it.
Ive always thought a route from st helens to runcorn would be great as 2 possible options would be to extend the 17 through widnes then over the bridge and then like the 110 to murdishaw or could have it going to warrington then like haltons 62 upto the halton lea shopping city.
