If you had the chance to modify or add any service, what would you do?

[Liam Pettit]

I think the x14 should change number very confusing with a 14 already by city center

Nothing wrong with it. Don't know how you're confused when the destinations are different and one has a prefix. Was the change from 3 digit numbers to 1/ 2, not helpful enough to understand? I don't know how it could be simplified any more.

If anything the 14 should be put into the 90 series, but then again you'd be partial to that because it's of your locals.

Read the display 14 Chelmsley Wood X14 Sutton Coldfield. Its not confusing at all. They don't even stop at the same bus stop.

You also have the 2 and X2, 3, X3, etc.

Yes call it 90

Is so repetitive, lots of other numbered available

Diamond already provide a frequent link on the 16A to West Bromwich which does what you suggest the 16W would do, indeed it was previously numbered 16W.

Yes but as of 2023 it is nowhere near as reliable as NXWMs offering.

And before 2023 it didn't always go to West Bromwich anyway. It would be nice if Diamond kept this route as is currently and NXWM's 16 terminated at Scott Arms

... wait what? This particular road is a very pleasant road to drive down. I've even been down it in my truck and the only problem was a few low hanging trees of which would be sorted out if a bus was to ever be routed up there.

As for the likelihood of that? Very unlikely unless there was an incident and it were done as a diversion.

Maybe I just find it very scary from when it starts next to West Bromwich stadium to the horse crossings. that section is terrifying to me, especially at night. but I can't fathom how busses would be able to make those twists and turns.

The second half of the road that finishes on Newton Road is really nice though. I do like that bit. There's also the dilemma that if two busses going opposite ways meet eachother. none are getting past.

mfw 2/X2, 3/X3, 4/X4, 5/X5, (many years ago) 7/X7, 10/X10, 12/X12, 13/X13, 14/X14,

Its just using the number its had since basically forever 
114>914>X14

Same with the 14 which has just been the 14 for the last 100 or so years

No reason to change what has worked for the last couple of decades (as the saying goes if it isnt broke dont fix it)

I'd have the NXC service service continue out of Rugby under the railway station bridge, along technology drive, past the newish retail park/tesco
Seems to be a lot demand for existing services in that area. Serves the houses, shops, railway station, college etc

That is impossible due to some journeys being contracted for double decks

Could do it for some of the single deck only journeys maybe?

Something like that maybe.

Instead of going via the station, you can send it up Clifton Road to Butlers' Leap, then either go via the estate at Broughton Lane and down the hill to the shops, or if you wanted to get closer to the station then back onto Mill Lane and down Technology Drive. Going via Technology Drive would serve the college there as well. 

There is a bus layby at Tesco if a terminus was needed.

I agree wholly on this one keep *31-38 for one corridor, and next 10 up sequence for the next.

Why?

Nothing wrong with any of those numbers.
