If just a few hundred of them realise that they can use their weekly or monthly passes on the 86/86A instead of paying for a taxi ride home, I envisage an increased frequency before Christmas.

The same argument applies to those people who live on the Wirral who, at the moment, are forced to pay a tenner just to get through the tunnel to Birkenhead.

But the sad thing is if everyone with passes use them they will not make any money, and thus still get withdrawn being deemed unprofitable, the drivers wages still need paying out of any takings, £20 an hour for Stagecoach I believe and well over £30 for Arriva
