More changes to the 200

Quote:Styal Road, Wilmslow - closure from 24 July for approx 6 weeks
Emergency repairs to a faulty electricity cable on Styal Road Wilmslow commence on Monday 24th July for approx. six weeks. Styal Road will be closed completely so service 200 will divert
via the A34, Heald Green and Finney Lane to get to the Airport. There will be no bus service to Styal Village or Quarry Bank Mill for this period.

I fail to see the point of running the bus to Wilmslow if it's not going via Styal. Wilmslow has an hourly train to Manchester Airport, Styal only has a train service at peak times. I would have thought if it's not possible to run a bus from the Viewing Park to Wilmslow via Styal then running a bus between the Viewing Park and Styal would have been the best option. Any schoolkids/college pupils from Styal now won't be able to use the bus during their school holidays and I've already seen posts on other forums where people are saying they've cancelled their plans to visit Quarry Bank Mill this summer due to there not being a bus.
