Im off on Monday so might come and have a look how bad it is. They said its open to Bold Street but thats shut off in the daytime so literally is the length of Hanover Street as there is no where else to go except turn around outside Central Station.

This issue was reported on local radio yesterday. Many callers laid the blame at Liverpool City Council for a lack of consultation and information when in fact the sole responsibility for publicising this disruption is the privatised company replacing the gas mains. Whoever is at fault, it will no doubt create problems for the travelling public.

I'd like to think that the Arriva services that will terminate early (outside Lewis's building) won't wait in the vicinity but will simply take up service immediately (in Great Charlotte Street/Elliot Street) and head out of the city as the north end Arriva services do in Queen Square and Sir Thomas Street.
