With the interworking between Cannock and Stafford services it's possible that the extra few minutes would cost an additional bus as well
They may also not see any point in serving the bus station, as Stafford Street is nearer to the shops etc meaning people don't have to walk all the way down to the bus station.

Given the current situation, am I to presume that TfWM are waiting for some easing of the lockdown measures before they go around changing bus stop flags? On Stafford Road in Wolverhampton, the flags are still showing the cancelled 54A service.

There does appear to be some flag updating going on still, certainly within the last couple of weeks, some of the stop flags along the 11 route through Billesley and Kings Heath (in Birmingham) have been replaced. So I imagine that those in Wolverhampton will get done at some point.
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

Now is a good time I suppose whilst it quiet, if they have the staff. Did they gave timetables along the Staffordshire end as with other Staffs routes like the X51 and 10A?
