To be honest i dont believe anybody when they say traffic issues caused the services to be rerouted away from Scotland Road , Scotland Road is not always clogged up , it maybe in the morning and evening in the direction of peak demand but outside them times its like any other road in Liverpool , there must be a reason for the rerouting other than traffic .

Might it have something to do with the redevelopment of great homer street. New shopping centre sainsburys and also the new Notre Dame school?? Nothing on Scotland road! A few services have been re routed that way from Walton/bootle (and the 56 moved back to Scotland road)

That is indeed the reason for the re-routing of services away from Scotland Road. The school is only phase 1 of what will be a pretty extensive redevelopment of the Great Homer Street area that starts in earnest in January 2014.

The routes have been changed now to cater for the school.
