The NX tender which covers the 287 and part of the 250 is going to be the 28 service

It was only showing as registered on Monday, so doubt it's in the public domain yet.

@Tony are the tender changes going to become new merged services.

With nx winning tenders will there be another big move around with platinums due?

NX 28 is replacing the 287 + some of the 250 as Tony's already stated.

It will only be 2/3 buses worth of work if similar frequencies to now.

So diamond and Nx competing on the 250?

Presume e200 on 28 service?

This is rather confusing. Unless Diamond have registered the other part of the circular commercially so it's an end to end route Merry Hill - Stourbridge via Brockmoor and Audnam with the 28 as Tony says via the current 287 and beyond to Wollaston to augment the 8? Pure guesswork obviously but if it is true then perhaps it does provide scope for an increase in frequency on the 8 as well

Heard this rumour for quite sometime now but apparently the 29 between Walsall-blakenall church is going to be scrapped is there any truth in this or is just another rumour that won't happen

Does that 29 get the passengers compared to the Nx version?

Its 2 different stops in Walsall for starters!
