Strange HTL Loosing these contracts which they have held for a long time


RE: HTL Buses - PO59 MXJ - 22/02/2017 00:59

Looks like they are going to lose the 30 as well now.


RE: HTL Buses - CX06 EBK - 22/02/2017 01:41

The 30s are being reduced to a one bus operation as part of the Sefton review so hardly surprising.

According to the details from the Sefton Bus Review, the 30 will only operate between L1 and Dingle. On a positive note, the 159 (Cavendish Drive-Aintree Hospital via Bootle and Netherton) will now operate evenings and Sundays as will Arriva's 58 (City-Netherton). Also, the 56 (operated by HTL evenings and Sundays) will operate via Vauxhall Road instead of Scotland Road.

An HTL driver told me that there wouldn't be any loss of work/jobs.

Assuming HTL win the contracts


RE: HTL Buses - CX06 EBK - 22/02/2017 14:30

The 236 (Fazakerley - Maghull) is also being extended into evenings and Sundays so there is another bit of good news.


RE: HTL Buses - PO59 MXJ - 22/02/2017 22:36

The L1 - Dingle could possibly be going to Stagecoach. The rest of the route is being compensated by Arriva putting the 310 on later.

The driver I spoke to seemed to think that there would not be any change of operator for the 56 (Sun and eve) and 159. Time will tell.

If St Helens is anything to go by, HTL seemed to have gained more than what was lost.
