Does Arriva Midlands still have a depot/out station in Bridgnorth?

646

No, the Bridgnorth outstation was closed and merged into Telford depot in September this year.

An additional service in Bridgnorth from tomorrow is the 101 town service taken over from Whittle.

Didn't Arriva used to run the 101 before Whittle as well?
This is a personal appeal... For Pete's Sake just save the #!@?$&% Scania's - don't let them follow the Dennis Falcons!

Will the 101 be running from Telford depot, or from Shrewsbury depot?

As far as I know,the only Arriva Midlands out stations are now Coalville (of Thurmaston) and Stafford (of Cannock).
I don't really know why Stafford is considered an outstation because it seems to have quite a regular allocation.Perhaps someone else can explain this.

Stafford is classed as a depot, but the management team that run it are the Cannock team.

Why don't they give stafford the 825 back its crazy interworking it with the 60! Stafford traffic is horrendous and it makes the 60 really late loads!

Maybe Stafford doesn't have enough money to run the 825?

Explain that one?

It is ludicrous to interwork the 2 though, the a34 out of stafford is a car park at rush hour and often bad during the day. Stafford is bad for traffic at the beat of times.  It makes the 60 very late, not just a few minutes here and there.
