This is ok if you live in West Kirby , Heswall and Wallasey where Arriva seem to be the dominant operator. Stagecoach cant really increase there Wirral operations as the depot already looks like its fit to burst when all the vehicles are in the depot. Its this point i was trying to get across if they had a depot with more space they would look to get a disc increase and continue expanding. |

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but if the newly-privatised Crosville hadn't sold off a large portion of its Rock Ferry depot for social housing shortly after deregulation, the current operator (Stagecoach) would have plenty of space in which to expand and challenge the dominance of Arriva on the Wirral. |

That was the only really maddening thing about deregulation was the asset stripping of some companies depots , Crosville at Heswall was a prime example as well. |
