Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
With regards to vandalism on the front seats of the Hybrids: the CCTV does not cover the 4 front seats or the very back seats- there are no dedicated cameras. If I were designing a bus I'd have a camera at the back, because that's where most of the trouble happens traditionally, so it makes sense to cover that area. It's also up to the driver to report vandalism after each journey so that the depot office can get hold of the CCTV and take any relevant action.

Does Arriva still operate Creamfield shuttles from Lime St ?

Yes they do, the service departs from the rail replacement stop outside St Georges Hall.

Is this the reason 4170 is at Bootle ?

Doubt it as Speke are doing the Creamfields shuttles with ALX400s.

Had my first ride on a Streetlite today, 6005 (ironically, as I live in Neston) on the 409. Nice looking bus, but short on legroom, and snatching at the gears on the downshift.

That and the lack of Windows (and all the windows fitted at the front) really lets them down and makes the Buses feel like an oven in warm weather. I would not like to be on them for long!
