Not wishing to disturb the 'New 50 Branding' thread, which buses are the most frequent in the UK? In the West Midlands, the 50 is the most frequent route, the 59 has the highest evening frequency of every 12 minutes and the 33/51 & 55/A/94 have the highest combined frequency of every 3/4 minutes. What about other areas in the UK?

If you are counting combined frequency over common sections of route then 22/23/24/29 have a combined daytime frequency of 20 buses an hour between city and Harborne, and every 7/8 minutes evening - possibly more frequent than the 33/51 and 55/94?

The 22/23 & 24/29 together, don't create a co-ordinated frequency. But if you're taking all routes into consideration, there are 34 buses between Birmingham & Perry Barr an hour

Ok fair enough, they are coordinated in the evening but not during the day.

The 9, 140 and 141 combined between Quinton & Birmingham, in peak times, you won't have to wait any longer than a couple of minutes

Most frequent routes in the UK are always going to be in London because of the sheer number of passengers to be carried,

for instance  LONDON BUSES

Route 25   PVR 59

Route 38   PVR 52 (+ 5 Borismasters)

Route 73   PVR 51
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

The Walsall 4 (Walsall - West Bromwich section) operated by Diamond and NX each on a 6 minute frequency therefore 3 minute combined frequency.

Don't Diamond operate a 7 minute frequency on their 4
