I see the 22 is being extended from Bearwood to Metropolitan Hospital via Sandon Road, City Road, Shenstone Road - is this the first time Shenstone Road has been served by a bus?

No.  It was previously served by the 80 I think among others.

I don't remember the 80 ever serving Shenstone Road, at least not in my lifetime

Maybe just stick to your Wolverhampton routes 👍

Probably the best idea. I was relying on AI which stated that Shenstone Road had been served by various routes including the 80, 87 and 54

That appears to be an error, according to the route map on the TfWM website, it goes via Rotton Park Road. Last/first stop before/after the hospital is the Shenstone Road stop on City Road.
