2163 on 1 but 20/A still double deck

[JoNi]

2144 has appeared on 20 but rest still seemingly double deck.

2144 has appeared on 20 but rest still seemingly double deck.

The option for the 20/A to be double deck will be there until they reinstate and integrate the 20B into the run, right?

And speaking of that...

https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/more-changes-announced-coventrys-bus-18599211 (why it needs a whole news article devoted to it I'll never know)


The 20A/C timetables that are linked on the NXC website have 20B timings listed on them, even though neither article mentions that the 20B is being reinstated.

And, if the 20B is being reinstated, does this mean all 20/A/B/C are back to single deckers?

There is no 20B running still.

Buses on new timetable for 20/A/B/C seemingly interwork resulting most buses going under low bridge in Oban Road so looks like days of double deckers to Bedworth are numbered except possibly Sundays. This over bussing and failure to take the opportunity of co ordination with Stagecoach epitomises the sham that the West Midlands Bus Alliance is.

[JoNi]

The timetable on website has changed with no service to Oban Road so I take back my comments about removal of double deckers from the 20!

Yea, my comments were based on the (now removed) timetable, which I did think was a bit weird as there was no date printed on it.

   Can I assume that as the majority of the new E buses are in revenue service from YW
    the same can be said about the coventry allocation?.. presumably in use on the
     warwick Leamington services ?  Or maybe not the UNI under the circumstances... Ta

It's been said for ages that they are for the 9/9A. So don't think this is to do with any current circumstances.
It was never said they are for the 11/12X.

They've only had three delivered so far.

  Thanks for the info guys  I have no idea where the No 9 service runs but I imagine
   they will run via pool meadow.

Yes it does run via Pool Meadow - towards Green Lane / Wainbody stop J and towards University Hospital stop P

There is a map on the route here:

Out via Corporation St and return via New Union St etc - is that still correct?

The 9/9A goes via Corporation Street in both directions.
