Hopefully these will now be more evenly spaced out between the 125 trips than the current 25 journeys!

As Simon has already posted only the journeys outside the 125's times of operation are continuing - which seems to mean one trip before and one after.

If i remember right the 580  tender was due for  renewal  and  for some reason it was put  up again  and diamond
got it  again .  as the route runs in Worcestershire and Stafordshire   do no know which council  subsidies it or if
they both  do  . or who  tenders the route  .  not 100% sure

When is the 2L being withdrawn, and any idea on who will run it instead?

R&B Travel of Clee Hill is taking over the 2L/292 contract from 16 April. I have been told that apparently R&B are investing in a brand new bus for the contract. But I will believe this when I see it. You also may notice the route has returned to its original route which is direct between Kidderminster and Bewdley via Bewdley Hill and WM Safari Park.
