The Tour of Britain currently means many services cancelled, terminating short or delayed.

It'd be great if Warrington Council actually thought things through for the Tour of Britian thing. Not very good to cut the majority of the towns bus network for an event and for the few buses which are running, people have to walk quite far. Sure another, less disruptive plan could have been created somehow. Closing the main town centre as that happens a bit more often but at least buses can then get around it on the ring roads on Midland Way or Mersey Street.

Guess it's happened now. Not a lot operators could do to fight back. I hope that operators did put up some opposition to all the closures. Probably a lot of lost revenue as I can't see many people walking such a distance to the buses.
