I though the original reasons they were moved out of Tividale was to free up capacity there?

I assume Tividale will also be operating the new commercial 29 (Walsall) & 66 (Centro tender) from 26th April as well.

No not since it was cut to Kidderminster. You can get the 294, 302, or a more frequent 3 and a short walk.
the 3 is the only  one that is a good service that way.  the  294  there are only a few runs a day that go  along that route, most go via railway station and wilden.  the 302 is a college service  so that would be no good

Indeed, the 3 serves each end of the road with Foley Business Park between Birchen Coppice estate. The 294 goes down that road but with only 2 journeys each way Mon-Sat.

The 192 uses Stourport Road, which I am told is a 10 minute walk from the Business Park

since  diamond took over the 192 it does not use the stourport road  as it terminates in Kidderminster. and the bussness park is just only just off the road
the nearest stop on the 3 is about 10 mins away from there.

@Will why are you shocked? They are just returning with the 142 & 202 services which you already knew about
