    Hasn’t the beach moved venue to eagles meadow now ?
    I seem too remember it was going to be based in the ‘old’ town center somewhere.

    Interesting to see their next steps.

    Thought it was still in Queen’s Square?

    I agree! The only part if Wrexham shopping that is “out of town” is the Plas Coch Retail park, that is regularly serviced by the Town Link, Brymbo and Summerhill buses. I see no real need for this shoppa hoppa bus in the first place.

    A great deal of buses travel to Eagles Meadow and Market Street to make those areas equally as accessible as the rest of town so there is no need here for the shoppa hoppa.

    They drive through the middle of a pedestrianised area where frankly I’m surprised no one has ever been hit.

    Good riddance to the service. Worth a shot? Not really. Was a complete waste of tax payers money

    Wrexham General -> Town = 5 mins walk
    Bus Station -> Town = 1 min walk
    Town -> Eagles Meadow = 2 min walk

    For those who cannot walk all seem to have free bus passes anyway, with Eagles Meadow, Market Street, Tesco / Asda / Sainsburys each with their own bus stops.

    Good riddance. £1,600 a month saved. :D

    Its because it went through a pedestrianised area that it made not cost efficient. It took too long and spent lots of extra fuel.

    No buses that get government money should go to Eagles’ Meadow until Eagles Meadow owners start paying UK tax!!!

    With the money saved by not paying our rate of tax they can probably afford their own bus service.
