The 600 bus route

Several residents have contacted me since the diversions from caused by roadworks on Old Road have caused the 600 bus to run along Wigan Road. Many have told me that they welcome this change to the route especially if they have to visit the doctors or clinic.

For those who can remember the 601 bus used to run along Wigan Road alternately with the 600 which ran along Old Road. Now residents are asking me why a similar bus route cannot be re-instated now. I do not think that they want to totally re-route the 600 along Wigan Road - they just want the 601 to run more frequently.

I have contacted First Buses with this suggestion and will report back when I hear from them.
