Has this duty now moved to Shrewsbury depot form Ruabon as suggestive could be heading light to Shrewsbury opposed to Ruabon from location seen?

Confirmed elsewhere this was sighted on the A5 near Shrewsbury running light back to Shrewsbury yesterday evening so was returning to Shrewsbury depot. The 576 was been been worked off Ruabon a week ago it would have appeared so assume all change on Monday unless anyone knows any different?

Regards
Chris.

Hi All, yes service 576 moved to Shrewsbury Depot from Monday 11th April and will be operated by the two MetroCity's from the end of the month. The school day only short workings and interworked Baschurch school contract are currently being operated by a Levante which is ideal as it has the capacity and seatbelts for a school run but is also DDA and now has a ticket machine fitted.

The start date of Wednesday 1st of June is correct as well!

Will current Buses from other places be moved to Shrewsbury to operate the said Tenders or is it the case of looking for suitable Buses to buy for the work?

All operated by ARRIVA Shrewsbury depot, 21/23/26 routes typically allocated Shropshire Council owned Solos in blue livery whilst 511 operated by Versas.

Makes an interesting link from Wrexham to Shrewsbury via the 146 / 511 and even a means of getting vehicles rotated back to Ruabon for maintenance via service if needed to Wrexham. One question, is the Shropshire Day Ticket valid on the 146 at all or is there plans for it to be with the 511 been taken on?

It has been on the 16/16A route since Saturday although it does not appear to have had many passengers on board. There were some passengers on the 10.40 from Dallam this morning the bus running immediately in front of NW. I saw the bus again later about 2.30 p.m. in Stockton Heath, presumably on its way back to Tarvin.
