That will be that the registration on VOSA hasn't been updated

[karl724223]

Yes 289 back to merry hill

[karl724223]

53 route change in bearwood
289 route change in old hill and oldbury

[Kevin]

53 route change in bearwood

A month after another change for the 53...

Yes 289 back to merry hill

Possibly with publicity along the lines of "we listened to passenger comments" instead of "we're sorry, we f***ed up"

[s94]

Yes 289 back to merry hill

Interesting. Presumably will follow its old route via Saltwells.

Are any of these changes to accommodate complaints from the withdrawal of the 297 between MH and Halesowen too?

[karl724223]

The 53 change end of October is to improve reliability missing out the motorway island
No to the 297 changes on 289 in November

[Sh4318]

Yes 289 back to merry hill

Is this just for Christmas? Or permanently? I really wish they would stop messing with the 89!

Great news, they should've never curtailed it in the first place. I was referring to the WB 89, which is having it's timetable amended, this route has been messed with a lot recently

Which way is it going then or is it the old route but with the changes in oldbury and old hill as mentioned by Karl?

[Liverpool Street]

I can't help but think with the South Birmingham timetable changes will be further reduction in running times. I think they'd do anything to save another bus.

[makkacdt]

any idea of the 289 change in oldbury.... if it misses out lion farm im going to be p*****
