Has it been confirmed whether or not the new depot is in Darlaston?

Googling "Arriva Darlaston" points to this group, but when you arrive searching on the forum for Darlaston gives no results

If you look up timetables for their new services you get this internet address for the 327
https://arrivabus.co.uk/hilltop-service-327/
which seems to suggest to me the garage is in Hilltop. As there were several rumours thet the garage was the old Pete's Travel garage in Hilltop I expect this is probably the correct location!

I can confirm 14 vehicles will be operated out of Petes travel garage, Hill Top, West Bromwich. This fleet was going to be looked after by Cannock depot but due to engineers stortage they will be maintained by Tamworth Depot.

Bob

any idea which vehicles will be used? darts from cannock? b6ble from tamworth?

Tony

New/hired Enviro 200s. photos of 2141 & 2142 in Cannock yard will be on the main site very soon. Also at Cannock are hired Enviros 200s KX08HMF; SN59AXA; SN59AXC which were with Arriva at Derby before Christmas as fleetnumbers 1008/3/5

Bob

Will cannock get any enviro200s? they need some new buses for the 25/26 31/32/33 group of services! they currently run tired old darts on them and these must be some of the most profitable routes! The walsall route could do with upgrading too
