It may be also replacing the 5 in Russell's Hall with the 5 running direct to Dudley.

Is the 9 going to interwork with anything?

So after increasing services, they are being reduced again? Is this driver shortages or just bus usage not recovering ?

The NXWM website refers to changes in frequencies; what it should really say is reduction in frequencies, because those are the facts.

Like a lot of people, I'm back to using the bus a lot more frequently now as my employer transitions away from working from home for at least part of the week. For the last few weeks rush hour 23s and 24s have been packed, and in many cases struggled to cope with passenger loads. Disappointing therefore to find that frequencies are being reduced again. If anything, I was thinking additional peak time journeys might be needed. 

If it's down to driver shortages then I guess it can't be helped, but would be interesting to know if it was due to reduced patronage, driver shortages or both.

Can anyone send a link? Have tried on the website but I just end up having to search for the route. Is there not a list anywhere?


Westy

They're still in progress putting them on though.

Eg there's a link for the 41 change, but nothing for the 9 yet!
