RE: Avon Buses
Someone on the Merseytravel Twitter page asked about the withdrawal of routes 183/184 and this is Merseytravel's response: "they're commercial services and Avon has decided to withdraw them from 28 April, no decision has been made yet about replacement" So wait and see I guess in regards to replacements! buses7675 http://dartslf.com/ Light up, light up as if you have a choice,
Even if you cannot hear my voice. I'll be right beside you dear. |

RE: Avon Buses
The 183/4 must have been marginal for commercial operation considering the vehicles have to come over from Prenton. The other commercial operation in Liverpool the 122 must be viable to have lasted so long with vehicles coming over from Prenton. |

RE: Avon Buses
As I understand (well from riding them in current and previous incarnations) they are used, at least in the daytime, however mainly with passes and not by huge numbers but no less than various Merseytravel routes so there is potential for them to return to being tendered routes, given they were until around 2004 when A1A Travel decided to commercialise them. buses7675 http://dartslf.com/ Light up, light up as if you have a choice,

RE: Avon Buses
The only problem now is with budgets cuts in every direction would it be feasible to replace these routes , hard decisions have to be made . |
