The contract would be far better used to say give the x5 an evening service as far as sharston (retaining a direct service to parts of sale moor/northern moor, and multiple interchange opportunities).

If it was a Cheshire East contract it would remain different to the daytime commercial service and then either not be renewed or if there's a break clause in the contract it would be exercised to terminate the contract early.

It seems stupid one side of a political border can have subsided evening services which aren't really needed and yet the other side can't even have an evening Wimslow-Macclesfield service after the commercial service has finished.
