Quote from: Bus_user_jay on July 28, 2022, 12:15:29 AMWhy have they swapped the number side to the right? I remember when all buses had their numbers on the left, then they changed to the right circa 2008... what was the reasoning behind all of this? And then for Coventry to change, and change again?
Iirc it's Because that's that way there was supposed to be but due to an update the number was put on the wrong side

Kerb side is where it's recommended to be in PSVAR guidelines

No for some reason the 13 to Willenhall and the 13A to Whitmore Park both have their numbers on the left side (there are some exceptions seen 4450 on there once with 13 to Willenhall and the number was on the right)

E036 has the route number on the right above the driver wonder if the new updates will mean they will all change again

Don't you mean the left side (looking from outside the bus) and strongly doubt that considering they changed it to the right side less than a year ago.

Probably just been programmed incorrectly.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Some of the electrics, and I also seen it on 4662 have capital letters representing the alternates again, instead of a lower case
