Due to tfgm tenders going back to normal operation from today/tomorrow the evening 7,328/329, 197 and daytime/evening 44 and 382 have all moved from Eccles to Bolton and will be Operated from Bolton for the next 5 weeks until TFGM review the current situation and work towards awarding to permanent operators.
The drivers were sent out route learning yesterday (Saturday).

What’s interesting is tfgm have asked operators to run tendered services to normal times/frequencies yet there’s no sign of the 307/308 or 373 making a return.
