Something I'm surprised Bolton Bus Basher hasn't picked up on is that apparently Arriva have lost all their Salford minibus work as well from the same date, not sure who's picked it up though, I read this on another forum this morning

I have picked up on it and mentioned it a number of times both on this Feed and the Arriva Bolton Feed..

This is a causality of the funding cuts. TFGM have withdrawn funding. I'd expect a few more from the same date.

More changes today with South Lancs Travel expanding into Salford and Manchester by gaining the 61/62, 71/73 and 293 services. Also registration for the 362 on Sundays (possibly the first morning journeys currently operated by Wigan Buses) and a Route and Timetable change for the 715, which may suggest they've gained the eve/Sun journeys on the route from Arriva.

Guessing this is why they have cancelled there services round st helens due to gaining these.

According to the above tender report nothing was awarded to anybody in January; is this is a mistake as it does list tenders that have recently been registered by MCT; or is this because they got delayed and were actually rewarded early Feb?

As Dentionan has said there's still lots to be signed off so I would image it will all come under Feburary.
