Stagecoach Merseyside & South Lancashire confirmed all affected services resumed regular operations following the road's reopening. Officials didn't specify which route numbers were impacted or how many riders experienced delays during the closure.
The road had been closed for unspecified reasons, requiring Stagecoach to implement temporary route diversions for several bus services traveling through the area.
