Ah fair enough, I didn't know that as I've never been at that stop. Still though, surely an actual stop would be better.
There's actually no pavement on that side of the road from what I remember so it'd probably be impossible to put an actual stop there.
From what I remember people wait in the university drive way?
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

The bus stop on Heath Street (by Dudley Road) doesn't have a timetable cover for the X7.

It's Cranford Street, not Cranston, TT90.
It is limited stop, ginger66, but the September 2 timetable leaflet's list of stops said new ones were to be installed on Heath Street and/or Cranford Street, without specifying exactly where.
One near all the new housing opposite the rear north end of the new hospital would make sense.
Today I noticed there are a temporary stops in both directions on Heath Street just north of the Winston Street junction. Presumably a suitable spot to plant permanent poles has been identified or will be installed in due course.

I noticed yesterday that Stand G in West Bromwich Bus Station still had 'Tipton' on the sign for the 44. I can't remember how long ago it was when that route was cut back to Harvills Hawthorn but it must've been at least a couple of years ago?

Here's the proof, taken while I was waiting for the 41A to Wednesbury. Gotta love taking the scenic route sometimes, the tram and the 79 can get a little repetitive.  ;D

Poor performance from the centro tfwm wmca whatever they call themselves today
New service pensnett 28 starts tomorrow
Had a quick ride round a bit of the route to jog my memory this is what I found some parts of the route have had new flags put on the stop with 28 on it but on old style blue network flags
Some parts of the route have new wmca flags on them but with 14 still on them
And timetables still up for the 14 service
Very poor

I noticed that on Hungary Hill, maybe WMCA ran out of the new stops and ran out of paper to print the timetables. It's like when the 2nd September changes happen and for weeks the bus stops around the region were incorrect with the old routes on the stops themselves
