As the route 12 is going sapphire in July what will happen to the Pulsars

Also it has been confirmed via the north west bus blog that the fleet is going to be double decker operation with 20 new buses. Will this exceed the PVR for the rhyl depot

The 12's will be all sapphire decker operated. Indeed 20 new president 2 Enviro 400's.
What do you mean 'exceed the PVR'. The Peak Vehicle Requirement can go up and down depending on services operated. The depot isn't limited to a certain PVR.

Which is also now incorrect, the official designation is E40Ds/Enviro400. Means there's at least 28 examples on order - 20 for Wales, 6 for North East and the 2 for the Shires all to Sapphire spec.

Don't you think the two routes to llandudlus should be renumbered to 12L or extened fully to Llandudno.

Also I read that a 2. 5 million pound investment for bangor which leaves 5 million pounds investment for wales left. Is the route 12 goin to coast £5 million or is there going to be another investment for another route in wales

Thanks

Sorry meant how many buses can the depot itself store. With 4/5 extra buses will this pack up the rhyl depot as it can get quite tight sometimes

Also I have heard arriva are expanding into the kimmel st car park is this true? if so what are they going to use it for ?
