Service 14 has been diverted this morning - part of Holme Slack Ln is closed so vehicles are using Manor House Lane instead. Delays are possible.

Apologies for any inconvenience suffered, and thank you for your patience

**112/114 DIVERSIONS DUE TO ICE**

Services 112 and 114 were diverted earlier this morning for health and safety reasons, due to the risk of ice on some untreated roads. The routes are now back to normal, but they are likely to be diverted again in the mornings this week, as the forecast is for more low temperatures.

When 112 and 114 are diverted due to ice:

• Marlborough Drive, Selkirk and Severn Drive in Lostock Hall will not be served.

• Spring Meadow, Mendip Road, Pendle Drive will not be served in Clayton-Le-Woods

• Radburn Brow, Chorley Old Road, Shaw Brow will not be served in Whittle-le-Woods

Apologies for any inconvenience - we will be back to normal routes as soon as possible each day. Thank you for your patience.

We've been informed that for safety reasons, due to the high winds Blackpool Promenade and Market Street are closed. Service 68 will follow the "illuminations" diversion along Talbot Road

Apologies for any inconvenience

Icy conditions & traffic congestion are delaying services 114 & 112 today. Please bear with us as we cope with some ungritted roads.
Apologies for any inconvenience suffered, and thank you for your patience.

Apologies, but high traffic congestion after an accident at J30 M6 (where M61 joins) is affecting local services (including our 112/114). Thank you for your patience.

BUS STOP SUSPENDED

Use of the Friargate/Walker Street bus stop (the first bus stop on Friargate for services inbound to the bus station) has been suspended for the foreseeable future - possibly for up to three months. This is because there are pedestrian safety concerns stemming from building work taking place in the vicinity.

Passengers of services affected (23, 31/31A, 35, 44, 68, 80) are requested to please use the next stop on Friargate as an alternative (opposite Heatley Street).

Thank you for your patience, and apologies for any inconvenience, the circumstances are out of our control.

We'll post more info soon on how the continuation of the Ringway roadworks affects individual services.

A major junction in Preston is to have lane closures during the evenings for resurfacing. Where Ringway and North Road meet, by the Holiday Inn, has been

Roadworks starting today at the Lostock Hall roundabout are already causing long traffic queues. The long term works are expected to last for 30 weeks (yes, that's THIRTY WEEKS), and unfortunately there are likely to be intermittent delays on service 114, especially at peak travel times. It shouldn't affect any of our other services.
