Not going to happen, as Nuneaton don't run any routes into Birmingham. :rolleyes:

Closest you might get is Solihull, if any end up on the 82/87/188.
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

Weren't the yutongs for the ZEBRA funded services running inside of Coventry and not for tendered services?

All bus services that operate within Coventry will be electric by the end of this year, regardless of whether they are tendered or not.

I thought rugby was getting some electrics too?

Only a handful, and those are specifically for the 86 (that goes into Coventry) and the local 4 route.

You won't be seeing any on the Birmingham routes.

Quote from: Sandy Lane on May 09, 2025, 05:41:38 PMAppears that 1450 SC 60 10733 was about 30 mins late leaving the Arena this afternoon and so ran direct via city centre to make up time at Westwood?

A one off or a regular situation?
Its starting to look like a pattern. The 1450 SC 60 and again 10733 seemed to run direct via city centre missing out on many calling points - UHCW hospital, Binley, Willenhall, most of Cheylesmore. Its only an hourly service so poor show Stagecoach.

Seems there to precious to use on a Sunday, maybe the planet doesn't need saving that much.

No doubt there's probably a reason for this.
And I think really the average passenger just wants the services to run (or service mileage to be completed) & doesn't sit on bus times watching for things like this to criticize.
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

Maybe I used Bustimes to check if they we're out as a Sunday is the only day I can get over to Nuneaton to see them, did you consider that before posting your snide comments

I guess we can expect to see a photo call and press release from the WM Mayor this week then?
