Arriva decimated St Helens with that network change in 2006. Although I was talking to a driver a few days back who said that Management were considering re-introducing something like the old 23/24. Since their withdrawal, quite a big housing development has sprung up between Sutton Heath & Sutton Manor (previously there was very little there and presumably was part of the original argument for the routes withdrawal).
