It said "In October Wirral will get new buses in the Merseytravel colours and here in Claughton and Noctorum, the 492/495 services will be vastly improved. Both 492 and 495 service will run every 30 minutes during the day on weekdays and Saturdays, in the evenings and on Sundays and Bank Holidays buses will run every hour until about midnight. The 437 service continues unchanged as does the 38 which will be renumbered 438. The 91/91A, renumbered to 491, will run hourly."

Just thought I'd put it here as it's looking like Buses being brought under public control won't happen until October, the 492/495 getting weekend and evening improvements and as it also confirms the 437 frequency won't change either.

The present Evening and Sunday provision on the 492/5 are a joke , it just felt like stopgap measure that went on and on. Its like a bus dessert particulary on the Noctorum andf Beechwood at them times.
