QuoteGuy Craddock, Centro area manager for Coventry, said the decision to close Park and Ride North had not been taken lightly but it was losing money and current usage averaged just 2.8 passengers a trip.

My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

To be honest, I'm not surprised that PRN is losing money.
The prices on the Park and Ride services are so high that I would have thought that not that many people would even consider using the services as an option.
What I don't understand is how PRS gets so many passengers!

I wonder if the 2 P&R buses will be branded for the new outer circle

There is to be a branding effort, but I think this will be for Versas only (though am not 100% about that).
