Thanks for that, makes sense with all the Tridents leaving now. I'm assuming that BC & PB will need to be completely Euro 6 now?

BC is located within the CAZ, so yes really. Even if they operated routes that didn't enter the CAZ (which they don't to my knowledge), the vehicles still have to enter the CAZ when running to/from garage.

PB will only need Euro6 vehicles for their services that go into the CAZ.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

All the deckers will need to be as they are all used on City Centre routes.
Only services that don't go into the City Centre at PB are solely Omnilink operated. And they are all Eruro6 aren't they?
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

Only double deck that doesn't go into city is the 38. Yes, when the current transfers finish PB will be 100% Euro 6

Doesn't the bus off the 38 come into City on the FD @Tony? As I've just seen 4477 on the FD which has been on 38's all day.

5503 has just gone out as a change bus on the 55. First time in service this year after the bad RTC

Doesn't appear to be, unless they're incorporating the changes from 18th July instead?

Ah sorry, I didn't look at the actual PDF, but the website does say "from 18th July 2021 until 28th August 2021".

A lot of the changes starting 18th July are for the school summer holidays
It's the changes back in September when kids go back that will be interesting
