Months of Planning, One Team: Birkenhead Mobilisation

What does it take to get an entire bus operation ready for day one? Months of planning, preparation and collaboration, with teams across Go North West and our partners working together to make it happen.

The mobilisation of our Birkenhead depot marked an exciting milestone for Go North West as we prepared for the launch of Liverpool City Region Combined Authority’s new Metro bus network across the Wirral.

Behind the scenes, a huge amount of work went into getting everything ready. From preparing the depot and vehicles to welcoming colleagues, coordinating operations and completing the final preparations for launch, teams from across the business came together with a shared focus on delivering a successful mobilisation.

It was a true team effort, bringing together colleagues, partners and stakeholders, all playing their part in preparing the operation for day one.

We’re incredibly proud of what was achieved and grateful to everyone whose hard work, commitment and teamwork helped bring the mobilisation together.
