First has announced there changes from Sunday it will see most service returning to there old frequency on a altered timetable with the 58 and 184 still suspended for now

Services are increased on most routes, but Oldham depot prioritising some routes on weekdays over others, so some routes will see increased weekday services compared to a normal timetable, while some services are running a reduced weekday service but a more frequent Saturday service.

Services 58 (covered by services 59/182), 82 (covered by service 83), 184 and X84 (both covered by service 84) aren't running, but service 181 is restored, running between Rochdale and Manchester.

Vantage services seems to be on a similar timetable as current temporary timetable, running every 30 minutes each, with service V1 running every 10 minutes at peak-times and service V2 running as a shuttle service during evenings between Atherton and Tyldesley.
