@bususer12 - not sure what Hanson's bid for, but the routes that have confirmed as being won are all Mon -Sat daytimes only

[Matt.N0056]

@Winston has the full list of tenders been released yet? If so, do you have the link to it?

EDIT: Just seen the other Hansons page and assuming the info so far has come from there?

@Matt.N0056 - no, the full tender awards page hasn't been published on Centro's website yet.

My comments were based on what's been confirmed on the forum so far

Really quite surprised that the 298/9 has been retendered again when IMO it could be covered by another service.

Surely by diverting one 276 along Springfield Ave and Brook Holloway and then at Foley Arms straight down the Hagley Road as a 276A would surely be more cost effective than the current arrangement.

I did suggest this as part of the Dudley Bus Review but guess that has fallen by the wayside.

Glad Hansons have won the 288 again, when they last operated it it proved very popular, it's noticeable that passengers numbers have dropped significantly over the last few years.

[bususer12]

Rumour has it that 226 evening and Sunday service hasnt been retendered and may be history?

[the trainbasher]

That better not be true otherwise it will severely upset several people's commutes, including my own!
