Extra police have been deployed to a city region bus routes after a spate of attacks on buses led to some services being temporarily pulled.
Cheshire Constabulary said a “mindless small minority” of troublemakers were responsible for the problems, which have affected public transport in Runcorn and specifically Murdishaw. The ECHO is also aware of a report on social media of a window being “put through” on a bus on The Brow estate in a different part of the new town.
Arriva said “antisocial incidents” targeting buses in Murdishaw had resulted in services being temporarily “removed from Murdishaw” once in recent weeks. A spokesman for the company said CCTV has been downloaded to support its investigations.
