We’re all working together to provide you with a better bus service. Better timetable - more buses! There’s now a combined, co-ordinated timetable between Liverpool, Crosby Netherton and Aintree. The combined timetable means that during Monday to Saturday daytimes, buses run up to every 5 minutes between Liverpool and Crosby and up to every 20 minutes between Liverpool, Netherton and Aintree. During Monday to Saturday evening and on Sundays, buses run up to every 15 minutes all the way from Liverpool to Crosby, Netherton and Aintree station. Tickets and passes As part of this Quality Partnership agreement, day and weekly tickets issued by either Arriva or Stagecoach can be used on both companies’ services between Liverpool city centre and Islington in Crosby on the 53 and 53A. With the co-ordinated timetable, it doesn’t matter which ticket you’ve got - you’ve now got up to 12 buses every hour during the day and up to 4 buses every hour during the evenings and on Sundays between Liverpool and Crosby. That’s why we’ve shown all the buses together in this combined book - it doesn’t matter who runs your bus any more! The full range of Merseytravel Solo, Trio, Saveaway and Free Travel Passes are valid on all buses, as usual. (See page 3 for full details.) The buses All buses used on Routes 53 and 53A have low floors, allowing easy access for everyone. Buses are fitted with state of the art, low emission engines for a cleaner, greener environment. Improvements to bus stops and highways Merseytravel will continue with its ongoing programme of improvements to bus stops and shelters and, in partnership with Liverpool and Sefton councils, will make improvements to the highways. 2 Tickets and passes explained As part of this Quality Partnership agreement, both Arriva and Stagecoach now accept each others tickets on Routes 53 and 53A.
