Diamond Bus North West

RE: South Lancs Travel
It does appear to me that most of the withdrawn journeys are those currently subsidised by Merseytravel. I assume that the funding arrangement for these journeys is being withdrawn so it would no longer be commercially viable to continue operating them.

I've attached the old Strawberry version of the timetable with the withdrawn journeys crossed out (to put it into perspective) as this shows the subsidised journeys in yellow shading.

   

The remaining withdrawn journeys either tie in with the subsidised journeys or the school services that SLT has lost, except for one afternoon round trip. I assume this is to allow the bus to be used on school workings come the new academic year.
