Not sure about WA 11

But WB will no longer be doing school journeys on 705 & 788.

It looks like WB are now operating Sunday journeys on the 20 (QEH to Cofton Hackett)?

I'm guessing WB no longer operate any boards on the 11?

A quick check on bustimes.org suggests that to be the case.

4967 was heading down Bearwood Road not in service this morning with 'In memory of bus driver Dean Jones 1965-2022' on the destination display. Understand he's the driver who sadly passed away following a medical incident at the wheel on Wolverhampton Road a few months back.

Can anyone confirm why the E200 MMCs branded for the 40 are no longer allocated on there.

Maybe the 43 needs longer buses?

So which route do you propose the Scanias go on? Once the next 170 Electrics start arriving then some single decks may be able to get converted to double deck, until then they have to be used on routes where when the service is running properly they can get people home even if it is standing.

They should put the singles on 5 and doubles on 12/13

Is that the same 5 that carries full loads on double decks?
