| WOB | Warrinton - Lymm - Dunham - Altrincham | 14/12/2020 | CAT 5 services were diverted away from Dunham Massey due to “safety reasons on the highway”, thus no longer able to serve the section of Route from the Junction of Warburton La and Dunham Rd and Altrincham Town Centre. All CAT5 services operate to/from Warburton, Saracens Head via Moss La, Sinderland La, Sinderland Rd, Manchester Rd & Barrington Rd to Altrincham Interchanges. (Thus via the CAT 5A Route but not serving the Partington loop or Sinderland loop). Customers travelling to/from Altrincham Boys and Altrincham Girls Grammar schools are able to continue to travel to school using the addtl bus that runs at the same Times to Warburton, on to Altrincham Interchanges and then Ashley Rd and Langham Rd to the schools. In the afternoon, this bus will operate from Langham Rd via Ashley Rd and Altrincham Interchanges then on the new Route to Warburton, Lymm & Warrington. We apologise for the inconvenience that this will cause and, should the issue be rectified we would revert to the normal Route if all the circumstancE are suitable. Thus some 5½ milE of Route not served. No provision for replacement from Dunham Town to Altrincham leaving customers to take taxis or use their cars | |||||||
