Stagecoach in Coventry & Warwickshire

[Coventrybususer95]

The coventry 51 on bus times seems to be tracking as the 51 Northampton - Brackmills but showing both routes if this makes sense

I think it was the extended Christmas break which caused a problem too along with the large number of changes happening all at once.

Update on the stop at Warwickshire Shopping Park this am.

Stop is privately owned by WSP and now serves both the NXC 3 and SC 60.
The very old style RTI is saying bus times are not currently available.
There are no TT's at all in the shelter.

Bus Times app only shows the NXC 3.

The OAP's havent got a clue what is going on.

True but would need a few people to put up the new timetables about 6 one do each side

It depends upon who's responsible for keeping the bus information correct. It may be TfWM under contract to the site owners or someone else.  I would contact both TfWM and the site owners and point out the problem. At least then you would have done your best to alert whoever is responsible.

Again I think it's the unusual circumstances that are at least partly to blame. I also think it's the perception held by some that everyone is online and so updated information at stops isn't as urgent as previous.

I read they are printing them & sending them out the next day to put on the bus stops so about a week & might be alll done

Let's hope so. I also hope they sort out the errors on the new timetables such as wrong information on Diamond 96 mentioned on another thread.

I saw that if they know they can change it

It took them nearly 2 months to get the 96 info out in the first place when the route changed the last time.

SC 60 replaces part of the NXC 3 route from tomorrow am.
When I looked this afternoon so far some of the bus stop flags and TT's have not yet been updated by TfWM.
Guess someone will be getting up very early tomorrow to get it sorted?

Where the 60 replaces the NXC 3 in Coventry some stops have now got the new TT but the flags have not been changed yet. Seems a bit messy to me?

The 86 Rugby - Cov timetable looks like its reduced to hourly from year end. Thats a big cut!

Service update shows more pain on the 86 for Binley Woods & Brandon passengers for 2 weeks.

I see the SC 60 route drivers are counting ang logging on the ticket machine the number of people who get OFF at each bus stop. Do any other buses do this in the West Mids?

Could be to see how used it is and if any route charges need to happen

All Stagecoach services record this automatically on the machine when a ticket is sold or pass scanned, drivers should then recored when passengers leave the vehicle.
