Does anyone know if the buses parked in cox street are fueled and ready for service if so cant they use them as the entrance is on a public road and to stop them would be an arrestable offence

No. Several vehicles were operated from a factory unit in Coventry to avoid the problem of the blocked entrance. I've no idea which of these you saw

I presume you are sat at home watching Bustimes.

All 20 running boards are on the road, but 20D-01 is E076 which doesn't track

This 9/17 interworking is still causing a lot of confusion amongst the drivers, just seen E077 meant to be operating the 10:00 17 to Fenside, but instead is going the 9s line of route with 9 to Green Lane displayed https://bustimes.org/vehicles/tcvw-e077?date=2023-04-02#journeys/407871044

Same happened with E042 meant to be doing the 08:30 17A to Fenside but instead did the 9 https://bustimes.org/services/17a-fenside-university-hospital-via-coventry/vehicles?date=2023-04-02#journeys/407850917

It's also happening on the 20/20A!

and they've been interworking Eves/Suns for many years.

4770 out on the 18 for the first time in 2 months

Danthebusman · April 15, 2023, 01:44:08 PM

it appears the 17 doesn't go down Britannia St anymore and instead follows Paynes Lane, turning onto Sky Blue Way, then onto Walsgrave Road and normal line of route. Not sure if this temporary because of the road works or permanent but can guarantee them speed bumps aren't the best for the suspension
