WN 2024 still doesn't track all of the time and if it does track then its only intermittent. It's been like this for years

I believe there is roadworks in the Pendeford area that could be causing these 4E's

The post that was replied to was from August last year.

this probably isn't the thread for this but does anyone have any idea what is going on with the mavis road bus stop longbridge/northfield? it had been out of service since 2018, was brought back for the new X20, and is now straight back out of service?

As far as I've been told it wasn't meant to be re-instated, which is why it's not out of use again. Although there are still next stop announcements for it.

Not 20th July changes as such, but timetables from 31st August, when those services which had summer reductions supposedly revert to their normal frequencies, are available on the TfWM website.

Disappointingly these appear to show that the 23/24, and 94/95 for that matter will keep their reduced 12 minute / 6 minute combined frequencies after schools return from summer holidays.

I think the frequency's are going back to normal in mid-September as I've been told the Bristol is also having a frequency change.

If it's >5 mins up the road there's little point
