4 services

Ok. All I'm saying is that the 4 services aren't the only services to have anti-social problems. There's plenty of services that have this issue.

Fully agree @Busboy105 & don't start me on how it can all kick off on the Diamond Bus 192 lets face it Blakedown isnt twinned with Husum an area that was one of the biggest supporters of the erstwhile National Socialist German Workers' Party for the fun of it.

I didn't realise Diamond were operating burger vans

A food trolley perhaps on those posh new electric buses? ;)

Back to my earlier point I think when Diamond ran the number 4 in addition to 4H a partnership could have been good. Wouldn't work now they only run one of the three '4' routes I don't suppose.

NXWM 4 runs Blackheath to Walsall the Diamond 4 ran only between West Bromwich to Walsall how could this ever run as a partnership route there wouldn't be much of a partnership between Blackheath & West Bromwich on the 4 @l.murphy123 whilst the NXWM 4H originally only ran Walsall to Halesowen with the much more frequent Diamond Bus running Walsall to Hayley Green on a different route entirely between Blackheath & Hayley Green your idea of a partnership on the 4 & 4H would be somewhat confusing to passengers! The idea behind West Midlands Bus is too simplify matters not make it even more complicated.

I wonder how long the 4H can sustain the amount of buses running along the corridor.

I was in Blackheath during the week and saw several NXWM and Diamond 4H buses arrive heading towards Walsall carrying fresh air.

I can't see that the Blackheath to Hayley Green section requires the 9 buses per hour.

I don't understand why they don't revert to the 15 min frequency before. Or keep the 10 min frequency but have every other one terminating at blackheath

Think it's to do with social distance keep.2m apart if you can

It doesn't, totally OTT.

I have driven the 4H, weekdays, Saturdays and on a Sunday at Diamond. There is an awful lot of time on the route, but when there are roadworks this is a huge advantage. I much prefer to sit in Oldbury/Halesowen etc for a few minutes knowing ill be leaving on time.

why are the full 4 and 4M's on their systems?
