What buses will diamond be using?

28A hasn't gone as far as St Andrews Retail Park for some time now, think it changed when Thandi took over.

@Stu I think Thandi used to until recently. Thandi took over from Diamond Redditch Depot in April 2020, and there was no change to the route at that time other than it going from half hourly to hourly.
They've clearly had a new timetable quietly introduced in recent weeks as it now goes past Aldi in Bordesley Green like the 28 as it used to use Belchers Lane.

Its also the 3rd time Diamond will have operated it I think. As they previously ran it as 98 before Igo aswell.

Loss the the 53 at shard end shops as 93 doesn't go up there - would be good to put 96 up to the top of Heathway left onto shard end crescent then left old Croft lane

It's a shame the link from city centre would be gone, also shard end shops has lost the service alot of people use, perhaps 96 could re route up to shard end shops

The 95 continues to serve Shard End Shops and into the City Centre.

Would like to see 96 extended down to the whole of Heathway though to cater loss of 53 to jacks etc.
