No plans to replace the MPD buses until next year at the earliest.

Are Rhyl set to lend a open top to Liverpool for the 'giants event' since on the arriva website it states that the 'little girl giant' will be travelling ontop an arriva bus.

I may have misread this but the article is here:

Why wont arriva operate to ruthin or wrexham and compete with gha x50.

also think the 11s need sorting. Maybe a additional 11F or 11X per hour for an dxpress service during the day

It would be nice to have a fast service from Rhyl to Chester one in morn or afternoon. But why would Arriva do that when you got the train and the train to wrexham.

If arriva was ever to lose the franchise for Wales , they would probably recast there entire bus network in North Wales.

Some trains to wrexham take 1 hrs 30 mins to 2 hours could be quicker by bus.

personally I think there should be some changes to rhyl

11F withdrawn
11G operates two sunday journeys
11X to operate every hour
X11 new route from chester to holywell every hour via sealand to connect with 11X

12B to serve llysfaen

35 to serve prestatyn nova and pontins
36 same as 35

45 new route between rhyl and boddelwyddn

51 to operate every 30 mins
52 new route from rhyl to ruthin every 60 mins
