With all the numerous PE route changes I can see PE PVR increasing! Or at least if not the PVR the type of bus requiring changing as the review will lower PVR on Merc routes including 205 and 297 and boost it on B7/Enviro/Trident routes, so any news or just general speculation how this is going to be done?

If anything the PN Pvr will reduce, part of the 205 is moving to WB as an extension of the 127. The remainder of the 205 is cut short. The 297 is been cut short both ends, with only the Halesowen - Merry Hill section being replaced with an extension of the 241. With the inter-working of the 140/141 & 241 from that date, that may also reduce the total number of buses required.

It sounds as though the Trident fleet at Pensnett may grow, whilst the Merc fleet will no doubt reduce.
possibly more enviro 200s for 243/4 and tridents or enviros then that could get rid of all the mercs

140/141/241 on one running board ie 141 to brum then 140 to dudley then 241 to merry hill or opposite
241 will go like 297 route but not station rd and will go saltwells not curry bonk
297 messy hell to gornal via tansey green rd not trading est
714 school service new service to pensnett ex wolves
127 extended to dudley from blackheath via 205 route
205 dudley kingswinford only via trading estate

Thanks Karl,

Will the 141 now becomes single deck, or the 140 & 241 become double deck as seen over the past week?

How is the 205 going to serve Pensnett trading estate? Still go all the way through it?

What's the route change on the 243?
deckers I'm told
