Warrington Bus Station

Warrington interchange opened in August 2006 to replace the old bus station from 1979, which was cold, dark, had a poor layout, and lacked the modern facilities required.
The new bus station is modern, has plenty of natural light, the bays are all in 1 row, and there are plenty of electronic displays.
Also in the building is a newsagent, BHS Café, Iceland, and toilets. Access to Golden Square Shopping Centre is via the escalators or lifts.
There are a few problems — the floor can get slippery, and has required repairs as well over time due to breakages, there could be more seats, and the toilets unfortunately cost 20p.

Good points. It is near central station.
Light airy and clean. Bad Points. There is no pick up drop off point for cars to drop off passengers.
The Kiosk point is only open.
You have to pay for the toilets.
The way the buses have to go around the little round about and back up is dangerous.

Much better now its been re done. It was horrible previously.

warrington bus station, however a vast improvement, and looked quite nice and organised, very friendly, in the information kiosk, however i had a few problems, simple you go to the correct bay, for your particular bus, problem the bus often pulled into any available bay and went on its journey, while people waiting for the bus at the correct bay was left behind, i complained about this has it was the last bus back to my destination, the reply was well this often happens, some people then had to order taxis, to sandymoor, we was lucky another bus service said they would take us home, we was grateful but i think this should never have happended, if it was just a one of alright but even the info guy says it happended often.

it’s nice and clean and i like the fact they keep the toilets open until it closes (haha)
the staff in the travel information centre bit are friendly too.
the bus times update properly too which is great, so you even know if the is a delay.
downfall though is, on a cold day, it is freezing in there, obviously it would be, but it would be nice if they had like little heaters dotted all over like the type used in gardens or something just to warm it up a tad. its nice that it is all undercover though :)

Top marks to Network Warrington Buses who seem to xlean the bus every time it calls in at the bus station. Excellent clean buses

I was pleasantly surprised here the other day — I know its all relatively new so it wasn’t surprising that the place was clean and looked very neat. It also wasn’t surprising that it was all set out very simply and was easy to find the correct bay for my bus. It was however surprising that the chap in the information kiosk bit was very very friendly and happy and seemed to be interested in helping me! I had a particularly tricky query on a specific bus stop (I won’t bore you with details) but he knew exactly what I meant and took the time to explain in detail which bus would stop where and seemed to know ALL the routes. It left a lasting impression and my 2 year old was thrilled to go on a bus which was on time, although quite expensive, was clean too.
