Same applies to the 343 evening service. Closure of Huddersfield Road could be in place for 3 weeks.

343 is running normal route from Oldham to Carrbrook then back up Huddersfield Road, Staley Road, Egmont Street, Manchester Road, Wakefield Road to Stalybridge and vice versa.

348 is running between Ashton and Copley only and not serving Millbrook and Carrbrook, which may eventually get served by shuttle bus.

Story on the MEN website about a 19-year old First driver at Queens Road depot who doesn't drive a car because he's unable to afford the insurance.

Cheers Mic. Having thought more about it, it is the whole front of the bus that's smashed up.
