Actually it's more than a couple times per day. It's 5 to 6 journeys during the morning/afternoon each day, ie 2 or 3 in the morning and three each way in the late afternoon

What's going to be covering the tendered parts of the 25 in bromford? E.g Collingbourne Ave... wasn't there the route that went out for tender which was Small Heath - castle vale via the fort?

It's not being replaced. There were not enough passengers to justify the subsidy.

Collingboure Avenue also still has the X12/X13 on Chipperfield Road at the end of the road. 
Or if you are going to Erdington you can get the 28 from the Hunters Moon or 11A/11C from stops on Bromford Lane.

to add, the reasons why the 25/600 ended up dying out was because the areas they run in are very saturated with high-frequency routes such as the sutton lines,28,X12/13/14 and the 65/67 so it only ever carried people who didnt want to walk the extra min or two which was very little.

Looks like X21 will run Adams Hill, Romsley Road then as 002.
Carmel Grove stop served by the X22 instead Which will run Jiggins Lane, Adams Hill, Wood Lane, Kitwell Lane, Balmoral Road, Scotlands Lane, Fields Lane. So passengers for the City will have to board on the other side of the road on that part of the X22.

Didn't even spot that, I'm surprised at that. I thought it would carry on all the way up Adams Hill as it does now and just turn onto Woodgate Lane to do the 002 section from there.

Also I wonder if the X22 destination displays will be changed to say Bartley Green instead then.

Looks like the 002 will have a bit of competition. Maybe Diamond will put more Streetdecks back on it
