Kevin Jones points at the bus parked outside his shop.

“There are normally buses in front at all times and it’s so annoying, I don’t see why they stay here,” he says. “They’re here all day non-stop...that’ll be there for three hours."

Kevin runs Atherton Tackle, the fishing supplies shop at the end of Market Street, Atherton. Businesses in the town, in the borough of Wigan, saw a boom after a new bus route was introduced - the V2, back in 2016.
