I've uploaded a few pictures from last night on Flickr, I think the most I counted on a journey leaving Elliot Street was 15 people.

Really is disappointing to see so little use of the night buses , im sure there is scope to improve them in 2016 if there is the will and the money to do it .

It needs more advertising, send an email to each business in merseyside and ask them to spread the word

The 03.05 Chester bus had 35 people on it from Sir Thomas St.
Also perhaps someone at Stagecoach could alter the destination on one of their buses which reads Tesco's when it should just be Tesco. Thank you.

I think the 10N ect that are going from Elliott Street will not do that well as thats not their daytime routes, really the Services should of gone from where they would in a daytime

To be honest this has shown that without it being a regular feature its not going to attract the passengers , at the weekends it probably has to be kept to the busier night of the week which is Saturday Night / Sunday Morning.

03.05 service doesn't go to Chester it goes to Ellesmere Port .
That's a reasonable load , just have to look though if its just getting people across the river or a bit further up the route . If it is just across the river Stagecoach may look at a crossriver service once again just to Birkenhead if they think the demand can be maintained .
