They are not just going to walk away from the area.It depends if they have the money to fund new buses; the same for West Yorkshire. as Arriva is no longer bankrolled from DB. I Squared Capital will get a payment for handing the depots and routes over and may have the view of we can then use that money for dividends. |

RE: Liverpool City Region Bus Franchising
The City Region are supplying the buses for these operations anyway so no incoming operator will be supplying any new buses as it stands. Oh Superman where are you now, when everything's gone wrong somehow, the men of steel, the men of power, are losing control by the hour.

Today was the closing date for tenders to supply the LCRCA with diesel and electric buses of various sizes in 6 lots. Information about the tenders can be found on Gov.uk. |

A lot more deckers than the current Arriva fleet at St Helens I wonder what the rest of the fleet will be. Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWlqEkh...wHyRfm5C_A |
