720 bus service

Message from Merseytravel received 06/02/2024

From Monday 5th February 2024, for up to four weeks or when the work is completed New Street, St Helens will be closed at the railway bridge. The road will be inaccessible to large vehicles from the junction of Eaves Lane to the junction of Severn Close in order to facilitate the upgrade of the traffic signals either side of the Railway Bridge and including carriageway resurfacing on New Street.

 

The closure is expected to be in place for up to four weeks or when the work is completed.

 

For St Cuthberts School

The second 720 at 1505 Schooldays will terminate at Marshalls Cross, Marshalls Cross Road, Eaves Lane not at New Street as normally advertised.
