Upcoming service changes in Merseyside

RE: Upcoming service changes in Merseyside
The 16/4/23 changes commenced today anybody been out for any of the service changes mainly St Helens.
My comments of first day of timetable changes. 2/5 rating
I went out to St Helens to catch Huyton Travels 12 service supposed to arrive at 10:20. It didn't waited there for 15 minutes.
I then decided to message Merseytravel on Twitter asking where it was apparently HTL was having problems with drivers excellent cant wait for tomorrows catastrophe of services with an additional 5 buses to run. Then I caught the 38A ran by Arriva now. First of all turned up on time. However the driver didn't know the route excellent Arriva just don't train drivers the new route. Anyways it was an excellent service by Arriva with nice Pulsar sounds.
Also a added thing. Theres been a number of bus stop changes. At St Helens there was no updated service changes. No signs to say there bus service has changed or changed stop at all. When I was gonna get the 12 its said 10:12 on the timetable however its been retimed to leave at 10:20. At the 38A stop it still had Sunday 37 on it and the 2 hourly 38A service which is now hourly. This isn't just because there was no time it happened when the 4th September changes happened as well nothing to say the service is changed.
Anyways leave a comment on the service changes and if you have been on a ride out on any changed services and your review.

The 17 and 29 appeared this morning to be running with a slight delay but appeared to be running. Seems to be all Solo SR's on 17, 29 and 60 as well as one on 12/33/35/35A.

Ye I wonder what's gonna be on the 152 tomorrow I'm hoping ADL 200's or Enviro 200 MMC's. But also the 156 I'm thinking they'll have solos and probably with the 289 as well.

It was mentioned in the HTL thread that the Enviro 200 MMC's will be on the 289 which will interwork with the 39, so looking like the 156 will be Solo's.

Well I saw a 200MMC on the 159, can't remember which one but I think OJK was on the 133 once as well

OJK arrived after the 133 returned to Hattons, as for the new services the MMCs will be used on the 289/39 at least, but from what I was shown there is no immediate plans to have them on the 152s.

Does anyone have any information about the shuttle bus from Liverpool South Parkway as on the Merseytravel website:

A free shuttle bus will operate for the duration of the closure. This service will operate daily to a 30-minute frequency, between 0715 and 1845. A full timetable and map will be available soon.

Shuttle Bus Route

From Liverpool South Parkway, via Woolton Road, Church Road, King Street, Blackburne Street, Banks Road, Speke Road, Horrocks Avenue, Woolton Road, to Liverpool South Parkway.

A full timetable or map are not available as advertised?

It's being ran by Cumfybus and is often a Fiat Ducato although a Solo has been used at least twice.

RE: Upcoming service changes in Merseyside
When are they changing the 91/91A. The consultation was ages ago and they haven’t said what they’re doing with the route.
