Over the last couple of days, work has been carried out at the 8C stop at Saltley in Adderley Road. The bus stop layby has been rebuilt, so it now stops on the road. So far the layby for the 8A remains unaltered.
Is Saltley Gate no longer a timing point? It would now be very inconvenient for buses to stay parked at that stop for any longer than normal loading/unloading.
