Just to confirm, the member of First Buses Bury Depot maintenance team, did in fact say, that rumor came from inside Bury Depot, and it caused panic amongst employees

he said Bolton cannot take on anymore buses routes or drivers
queens road has no facility for bendi buses
And Wigan is definately not for sale


He said Bury would possibly relocate, when a site becomes availiable, but there is no where that meets requirements in Bury.

And after all he should no

Totally agree the we should not listen to rumours as they can upset a lot people who could be affected. Always better to have the facts. One thing though and this is a general observation is that Bolton could take on more buses. Its total allocation is at the lowest its been for as long as I can remember and the depot was built to take 200 plus vehicles.

Totally agree, the mechanic from Bury might have not been aware of the current allocation at BN. But as he says Bury is not for sale or closure, but a potential relocation in the future
