We've gone from 7 buses to 3 buses with an hour gap in service
I saw that too, with a 4th not that far behind either.

We are highly frustrated with the number and impact of short term road works.  On most of the services, we have emergency road works which is causing major disruption. 

On the back of this, we have asked for a discussion with the Authorities creating this problem.

20739 late running by 15 mins on the 1505 326 to Bloxwich.

(Just missed it!)

Lets hope my usual 1536 is running.

Not sure if this counts, but 247 would get to bidford around 50 minutes late on average. This was due to bidford bridge being shut and happened from around the second to the fifth of this month.

Is there anything happening in Bilston, as 20887, supposedly doing the 1536 326 to Bloxwich, according to Bustimes, has got as far as Bunkers Hill & decided to return to Bilston!

I suspect vehicle has broken down though personally?

30703 running late on the 326.

The 1506 from Bilston departed 10 mins late & I managed to catch it,in Willenhall, rather than waiting for the 1536 to turn up!

Looking at Bustimes, looks like it had a problem early on, on its journey into Bilston.

1635 on the 64 Wolvethampton-Penn, Wakeley Hill departed 25 minutes late. This bus had been delayed on the 65 diversion in the Ashmore Park area making it late departing on the 63 to Bradmore and back which it does before the 64.

Why are the majority of 16a's running twenty/thirty late? Is it all to do with temporary lights just Hamstead train station?

The fact the NX buses are on time, and all Diamond buses are showing exactly the same lateness would tell me they are also actually on time and it is just a schedules problem.

It's only the past few days that the service has gone downhill faster than a roller-coaster

Only if you're sitting watching Bustimes for things to complain about.

Or hanging around for a service that is half hour late

They are not half hour late though are they. It's just the timetable on bustimes is wrong. The 16 between the two companies is running a good service today.

What time did the 0942 WB/BC depart this morning? 

Westy

Any ideas when the roadworks in Bilston are ceasing, as they're playing havoc with the 326?
