I've used the 10/A most of my life through some of the roughest areas in Liverpool (Kensington, Dovecot etc) and vandalism is extremely rare. I haven't witnessed one act of vandalism on there. The 61 passes through a huge number of schools in the city and I've heard the stories of the vandalism which happens on there and does that mean the route doesn't need deckers? Could you imagine being on a Marshall Dart with 100+ school children? Well that's what a 10As like at peak hour! Every morning buses are packed before they even reach Old Swan, and how many people get left behind because of this? The route NEEDS double deckers urgently, and like Gillmoss 0324 if management do read this I urge them to get some! FC Pictures, how often do you actually use the 10A route? Is it peak hour every morning like myself? Pretty sure I've got a good idea what it's like! Out of interest, what's the latest regarding the decker rumour?

i know what schoolkids are like on buses everywhere,anti social,drivers have refused to pick up near some schools on the route and teachers supervise loadings,not that they behave once the bus moves off, you might think the 10/10A needs deckers urgently but Arriva don`t, having run it single deck for the past 14 years plus.the deckers rumour is just that, a rumour based on zero fact.
