I have some old data saying the PVR is 12 vehicles, no idea if that's the case now.

During daytime Mon - Sat there are five buses on 11 and three buses on 12. There are up to eight peak buses during University terms. but these also run on school routes and services 7, 10 and 19, but individual journeys are also worked by buses from routes 5, 6 and 20 at least!!

Yes the 9 will serve Leasowes Ave, Finham residents have wanted a service both ways on Green Lane since the 15A/C finished, the short lived 9C was rarely used.

NXC confirms this 9 and 9A service change today, they'll interwork at Leasowes to maintain workload balance.
No idea if Wainbody deserves a doubled level of service but as it's under existing resources I'll not be complaining.
The suggestion of short journeys to Mantilla Drive was rather short-sighted of course ;D.

JoNi

Thanks for the tip JPC. I was under the impression that the 8A was being extended to Bell Green, obviously this won't be the case.

Does Coventry's Bendi buses fair better than PBs Scanias or are they due for withdrawal soon?

That's a fair point especially as Coventry's are older

4423 on the 1E to Chapelfields - is that unusual?

No, it's on a working that's usually a school bus.

1E to Chapelfields

9 months since this route was shortened to Chapelfields and the electronic blind destinations still not updated.  ::)

JoNi

If E suffixes hadn't been inflicted on Coventry there wouldn't have been a problem in the first place!
