I was told that the revenue covers all it's costs, only a few months ago when we had a meeting at the Eco centre. They did however mention that the part time site at Blowick was under review for disposal.

ARRIVA as well as any other one else will re-bid the tender, for after the 90 days notice , for all sites of park and ride .

This may be an opportunity for Stagecoach to look at that work if they so pleased.

Southport Flower Show has its own Park and Ride at Birkdale.

The changes for the 29th March are on VOSA , the only one missing is the cancellation of the 42 , which is is to be inter worked with the 44 to a 20 minute service .

Enviro 4577 was noted today on route 47 to Liverpool.

RE: Arriva North West - Southport Depot
The spare Enviro 400 always goes out on the last Liverpool board when all 9 are available for service, which is most days. The PVR for the 375/385s is 8 buses which releases the 9th for 47s. Considering that there was a £1.9m investment in these it makes sense that they earn their keep.

1> Looking at the run out when I was on 300 the other week is it normal now to get a mix of Pulsar 2s and Volvo B10BLEs

2> If its in service what time/s does the Enviro400 leave Southport on 47s

Its perfectly normal to get Volvo B10BLES (2722-2728) on the 300 along with a mix of pulsars and Southports two commanders (2622/2624). Hope that helps.
