Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot
RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot
Arriva have never really cared about Wrexham, which is something I don't think anyone can disagree with. As stated there is no reason not to have larger vehicles than the MPDs, even my local route the 10/11 could take full size single decks, or even going back many years double decks were not uncommon.

The largest town in North Wales being made up of over 50% MPDs with the newest being on a 51-plate is terrible. The issue is (and across North Wales), there is not really any competition for Arriva, so they can trundle along doing what they like.

I said this before the entire 'Sapphire' treatment was pointless, all that was needed was normal (reliable) double deck vehicles.

In terms of Arriva Buses Wales as a whole it does seem to be receding, look at Aber. Another thing to notice the only recent investment in Wales has been on the two routes which could easily be operated by Chester depot (Rhyls Gemini's and Wrexham ADLs).
