I doubt such an agreement would be permissable under Competition Law introduced by the Labour government. Unless, being a bus partnership would allow them an excemption? Traditionally, Chester - Birkenhead was NBC/Crosville, and Chester - Blacon was ChesterBus, both now Stagecoach. Arriva merely own the other former public companies MerseyBus, North Western & Crosville Cymru in the area.
