Those evening service's they run, do they come off from day buses? E.g day drivers take the bus to the evening service starting point to change over or take vua back to depot then the next driver takes the bus out? Any cross linking of buses between routes?

I guess it depends how Arriva fair in the April round Centro tenders, as there's a number currently operated by Arriva up for re-tender.

My understanding is that Wednesfield comes under Cannock anyway, a number of the functions of the depot are overseen by Cannock.

Wednesfield is stand alone, nothing is overseen by Cannock.

4783 out on the 10 today. It's usually a single decker on a Sunday.
4797 is on the 27/28E.

Do Arriva run their services from Bilston separately or are some services linked as some routes seem to have potentially large layovers?

large layovers due to early running carrying no passengers

The 223 had a large layover in dudley today, driver parked it diagonally behind a 246 on the patch so he could urinate on the front nearside wheel.

He then sat on the bus vaping for about 15mins.......... Couldn't be bothered to walk to the toilet.

Not sure about for drivers but the public toilets at dudley bus station have been closed down. Crazy thing to do. Shows the council got nothing but contempt for passengers
