RE: GHA Group (Bryn Melyn, Vale Travel + Others)
Thanks Ron for the comprehensive update. It's a shame none of the new Denbighshire timetables are available on GHA's website, or on Traveline - even after they have been running for a week.

I don't think the new service in Warrington starts until the 5th May?

Hi Ron,
From VOSA, it seems that this service is only to start on 5th May.
I cannot find a timetable for it, so am pretty sure that it has not started yet.

Yes - sorry - jumping a little ahead.

Vale Travel-liveried Solo YJ60KBN was on Bryn Melyn service 501 (Shrewsbury - Ellesmere) today. Shows how the fleets are being mixed up!

The New Livery does look Verry good on the Versa's. let's just hope that the whole fleet doesn't get a completely standardise livery, as i always like the variations in the GHA fleet

New 45 timetable:

Northwich to Warrington services will depart at xx:30 (5 minutes ahead of the Network Warrington service) but only between the hours of 08:30 and 16:30. They'll also be Northwich to Great Budworth services at 17:40 and 18:40.

The Warrington-Northwich service will depart at xx:35 (again 5 minutes ahead of the Network Warrington service) but with the first bus at 08:35 and the last bus at 15:35. Given the 16:40 Network Warrington Warrington-Northwich is a route 46 service I'm surprised GHA aren't running a 16:35 on the 45 route.

So anyone commuting on the 45 route working normal office hours will only be able to use the Network Warrington services if they want to use the same operator in both directions.

Not the case. The 45 will now follow the same route as the Network Warrington service, via Antrobus rather than Comberbach. There will be two morning journeys numbered 45A from Northwich to Warrington via Comberbach and three 45As in the evening from Warrington to Northwich. A summary of the timetable is attached.

YJ60 KBN is waiting for a space in the body shop to loose Vale Travel branding and receive Bryn Melyn branding.
