It appears both garages will share the 13A
I assume the 12 will have the hourly frequency during the evening

Interworking with the 126 on evenings

Anyone got an idea when the general public will know the full details of these changes?

Or are we going to have a repeat of the South Birmingham debacle?   Surely if Drivers know intricate details such as interworking then the changes must be finalised.

Will the 126 be the Hagley Road anomaly that keeps its 1xx numbering, while all the other numbers change?

I thought it was now being re-numbered '26' in lieu of the proposed '15' ?

To be a little bit fair to them, at least this time they've got the info out that there is GOING TO BE changes and to look out for info, which is one step up from the South Brum ones
That said it is leaving it rather late, given previous reviews
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

If they are starting Route Learning then why can't they let the general public know what's going on? I'm sure these will have been registered with the Traffic Commissioner by now.

It's 1 month away - just like the South Birmingham review there is very little regard for their Customers here.

What's that got to do with you?  Or any of the points I was making?

@Straightlines It's a forum! Everyone is entitled to comment / have an opinion, Winston

Why is the 126 staying the as the 126? No point changing some of them and not all. As it stands you have the 126/7/8/9, now you'll have the 12/A, 13/A & 126. How's that simplyfing things?
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

Confusion rather than 'simplification'.

It's no less simple than the latest version of the 48 route.

Oh hang on a minute... ;D

Most likely because the 255 is becoming the 15/A
