2024 new buses!! - Route102 - 29/02/2024 17:18
A new batch of 60+ single deckers will be ordered for Arriva depots this year I understand!

Do you know any details regarding the manufacturer or will this be revealed at a later date, thanks in advance.

From what I’ve been informed an order will be placed soon with the buses due later in the year! It would make sense for them to get more MCV EvoRa B8RLEs

Not sure if they will be as the order hasn’t been placed yet from what I understand.

I'm not 100% sure then, that's what he said that he saw 3 Evoras with 2596 on Canning Road

St Helens driver just told me that it might be 100 new vehicles that will be ordered but I’m not quoting it may only be the 60 already mentioned really hope St Helens gets some Evoras

Are the new buses solely for Arriva in the North West, or for Arriva all over the country?

More updates on the new buses.
58 Volvo B8RLE MCV Evoras are to join the fleet later part of the year. The buses will be allocated across the 7 Merseyside depots. They will be the same as Bootle and Bangors with cameras not mirrors.
In addition around 40 second hand single deckers approx 3 years old will also be purchased and allocated to the fleet.

Any idea of what the 2nd hand vehicles will be?
