Are they allowed to alter subsidised routes (or is the 142 even subsidised?)

Changes due to roadworks on the A34 only.

The 142 changes were to make it go into Halesowen via a one way loop to stand C as per Diamonds route. The return leg to Stourbridge is as previous

Oh dear even converting from pulsars to clapped out Darts Cadets and Commanders can't make it turn a profit then.   To be fair surely even a half hourly service would be good enough

Yep, will be every 15 Mon-Fri from April. The Stafford town service changes appear to be timing point changes only so no actual change to the timetables. Only changes to the 1/2/2E are just to the 2E.

There's nothing on the Arriva website about changes to Pye Greens or 2E considering its only a week from April. ..About right.  My guess is the outer Cannock circulars won't last and will be next for the chop

Well unless Staffs pulls the contract they will carry on...

They're actually commercial

Post by: Bob on March 25, 2016, 12:24:30 PM
Exactly and considering Stafford Wednesfield and Cannock garages don't seem to be able to make any new commercial routes work period.....I'd say they'll fail miserably

Arrive Midlands North put in a whole bus load of service changes last week, so should be appearing on the DVSA site soon.

In the meantime, following the collapse of GHA Arriva have picked up 96, 436, 511 and 576 in Shropshire.

Notable services still to find new operators are 205 Whitchurch, 101 Bridgnorth and 501 Ellesmere.

On the NWM service changes document it mentions the 8 (Wolves - Telford) being withdrawn.
Any ideas?

Yes. The Cancellation Registration appeared on Vosa for it. Low Patronage.

Depends who is using it. Only ever seems to be full of OAPs whenever I have been on it, very few actual fare payers.
