The current 97 is funded by Resorts world and not the airport I didn't realise. Random fact for the day.

Also states that the 966 will take over and connect new locations to the airport I.e Solihull and will go 24hrs I wonder if the 97 to chelmsley wood will continue 24hrs

It's in the past tense think all that is happening in Spring now

Posting here because it regards the Harborne routes

Stop SH6, on Livery Street, has not been showing on the bus times apps (NXWM, Network, heck, even Bus Checker) - even when it was served by the 82/87... Anyway, today I noticed that a Temporary Bus Stop sign has been put up so is it possible the Harborne routes may be rerouted in City Centre again? That'll be a shame - I quite like the route as it is now..

To be honest, I thought they might make the diversion a permanent part of the route. It's catch 22 though really (no pun intended), as on one hand it takes a bit longer to get out of town but on the other hand they're more accessible from other parts of the city centre, e.g. New Street.

EDIT: Just seen that Temporary stop sign, it does look ominous lol. As for the times though I've not been able to see any on my app for ages.

I believe it was knocked down by the car. Saw the bus stop stand on the floor with car bumper few days ago

Is 6826 alive and well- not seen it for ages.

On the X2 this morning if your still looking for it.

Theirs a X1 branded Platinum at YW. I'm assuming for some type of repair.
