Withdraw 28 Blackbrook St Helens section and replace with 156.

Daytime
Withdraw Ashton only 320, operate St Helens Wigan 320 every 20 minutes with deckers
Revert 20 to every 20 minutes to keep the route going, it can also run as a duplicate

Evening/Sunday
Retain the Ashton only 320 and keep it every half hour, Wigan, Ashton, Wigan, Ashton etc.

Why would you withdraw a commercial route and replace it with a tendered one? Unless Hattons have plans to withdraw the 28, Merseytravel can not make them drop it.
