That was the route I suggested to First when the 68/68A was withdrawn! Glad to see that my suggestion is being taken seriously at last.

Did you propose that to First/Metro or did you mention it on here?

Very good, you can take all the credit you deserve

Oh and if the residents dont like this one we know who to blame, right?

Lol! I was on the 64A on its first day of operation via the Scholes loop and got into conversation with the 2 residents who kindly blocked the road so that we could not get through! So yes I did have a confrontation. Hopefully this routing should solve that....
