This milestone, the first in England in 40 years, represents a seismic shift in how the city-region connects its communities, promotes sustainability and drives economic growth. The transformation is part of the Bee Network, an ambitious vision for a fully integrated, “London-style” public transport system by 2025.

The news follows the announcement that Arriva North West intends to close its Winsford and Macclesfield bus depots. Starting from the 24th of April, Stagecoach will provide customers with bus services along the route 84 connecting Chester, Nantwich and Crewe. 

Stagecoach is also offering PCV licence holders an incredible welcome bonus of £1000 for anyone who signs up for employment at their Chester depot.

Matt Davies, Managing Director of Stagecoach Merseyside, Cheshire and South Lancashire, said:
“We are delighted to be welcoming this route into our depot at Chester.

“We currently operate 15 routes in the Chester area network going to Liverpool, Ellesmere Port and now out to Nantwich and Crewe.

“We know it can be unsettling when a bus route could be under threat, so we are pleased to continue the operation of this service Monday to Saturday as an hourly service between Chester and Crewe with some additional weekly journeys between Crewe and Nantwich, we will be reviewing a final timetable soon to ensure that we make this a reliable service for customers.”
For residents of Chester, Tarvin, Tarporley, Nantwich and Crewe, this announcement will no doubt be greeted with relief and joy.

From April, customers can find details of the new timetable along with ticketing options on the Stagecoach website.
