Variation Accepted: Operating between Canute Place, Knutsford and Canute Place, Knutsford given service number 300 effective from 01-Mar-2016. To amend Timetable.

Presumably revising to run Monday-Friday only as they don't deem Saturday loadings to be profitable enough to run commercially and a Saturday daytime contract has just gone to GHA Coaches. The subsidy level offered by Cheshire East council for the Saturday service works out at £6.25 per service, so the loadings don't need to improve that much for the service to become profitable again. If D&G hadn't done their 30p increase which was high enough to result in more people walking to town and catching the bus home (opposed to catching the bus in both directions) it might have been the Saturday service would have taken more revenue.
