JIM Gin Pit – Astley – Bedford – Leigh – Parsonage Retail Park 03/04/2016 New supported hrly M-S daytime bus service linking the recently completed Gin Pit Village residential development with Leigh town centre. In addition, spare time in the schedule has allowed the reinstatement of a bus link between Leigh Bus Stn and Parsonage Retail Park, which has been the subject of several recent requests on behalf of passengers. The cost of this tendered bus service is wholly met by Wigan MBC using developer funding they have received under two separate Section 106 planning agreements and provides new transport links to Gin Pit, Astley and Vicars Hall, Boothstown, the former only ever being served briefly by the short-lived T21 taxibus (This is the third such s106 funded service recently – the others being VH1 at Boothstown and the Broadheath Shuttle 1 at Altrincham) 16-0115 586 586 Y View timetable
