Rawtenstall, Bacup Road, 22/06/2020.
From 5 January 2020, Lancashire County Council supported services in the Rossendale area operated by Rosso were revised to protect their future viability. The 7 from Rawtenstall to Todmorden was withdrawn and the 8 from Burnley was re-routed to serve Todmorden from Bacup instead of Rawtenstall. A service from Rawtenstall to Newchurch and Edgeside was maintained on an hourly frequency by resurrecting route 10 which had been withdrawn in January 2019.
