Quote from: Westy on November 10, 2022, 12:02:34 PMHas service 25 been rerouted to miss out the Forest Estate in Leamore?

Took them a year & a reminder on Facebook, but no bus now serves the Forest Estate. 

Closest being Harden Road or Bloxwich Road!

Obviously no one wants a bus down there now!

One incarnation of the WMT/WMB 374 used to serve elements of the Harden and Forest Estates in the 90s (sometime around the bus strikes IIRC). I'm sure TWM/NXWM have tried variations too.

Not a particularly busy area for patronage.
Autofare 3 - the ticket that laughs in the face of contactless!

Even the old Travel A2Z were there as well!

Intriguing to notice, while new timetable posters have been put up at stops in my area, to reference the x51 change from Sunday, it appears one late afternoon journey on the Wct 25 has been rerouted to serve Bloxwich Road & guessing here, the full length of Harden Road.

Any reason why?

I'm taking a guess ASB related, but I'm surprised the diversion has come that far down, as I didn't think was an issue with Chantry Avenue?

From WCT Facebook


"Bloxwich Diversion Service 25
Due to a burst water main on Stafford Road outside King Georges Park  buses will be diverting from Bloxwich along Lichfield Rd, Selman Hills, Buxton Rd, Sandstone Rd to re-join the route by Wallington Heath pond there the vehicle will then travel on route along Stafford Road onto Sandstone Rd onto Lower Farm and back along Stoney Lane to Island Vets where the bus will turn left along Wallington Heath to re-join Stafford Road back into Bloxwich.   
Apologies for the inconvenience."                                                .
