I have done a spreadsheet with what tenders have been issued based on the notices and proceedings that were released at 0010hrs 16/09/2016.

I have put in a FOI request for the full results from the WMCA/TfWM so will be able to update further soon...

Many thanks for the spreadsheet as it makes understanding these tenders a lot easier.

The 205 which NX has now gained, I'm assuming thats the Sunday service ?

Will the 71A use Tangmere Drive, or Farnborough Road in Castle Vale?

According to VOSA, Hanson's have cancelled the 231.

Thanks, from what I gather the Sunday PVR is 1.

Would you happen to know when these tenders come into effect ?

Confirmed that Diamond have the evening & Sunday journeys on the 226.

Also NX have won the Sunday contract on the 205 and the evening journeys on the 243.

Late evening journeys on the 222 are to be withdrawn (think these are commercial).

Appears the 282 has been withdrawn totally.

Cheers bud, just checked my emails haha!

NX appear to now have the 44 on Sundays as well.

Yes looks like the 282 has finally lost the battle. How does the 298/9 do these days? That was a very low patronage route wasn't it? Is it still that way?

Anyone know if the tender itself is for the whole Sunday route or just the bit that NX do the rest of the week?

To Harvills Hawthorn as per Mon-Sat. Increased to half hourly on Sundays.

The 298/9 route does ok, but on Saturday for instance I saw it 4 times and the most I saw on it was 1.

As have said before, could easily be covered by an hourly diversion of the 276.

Sadly the 288 doesn't do very well these days and I am told that the residents of Love Lane aren't looking forward to Hansons running it again!
