Quote from: B61 ANDREW on April 02, 2023, 01:22:11 PMDrivers and bus 817 seen in the bus station in Bromsgrove earlier today.

I believe it was 824 today. It passed me whilst I was waiting for the 55 on Leach Green.

Will this service be single deck or double deck like the current 20?

If it's still going to interwork with the 48, then doubles, surely?

Interworking with the 48 so based on the current pattern, mainly doubles with some single decks appearing from time to time.

Quick question. Any particular why the name Scott Arms Stop GG has changed to bromford walk? This is for the 5 bus stop.

Probably something to do with TfWM. They've changed quite a few stop names over the last few years.

I'll put this here as it's relation to the 20 route, But am I able to tap on the bus using my Swift go card at Bromsgrove on my return journey towards Longbridge?

Thanks in advance.

But is it valid for travel to Bromsgrove as Nbus and Nnetwork tickets are certainly not?

Given that you can use Swift Go to pay for parking at Bromsgrove train station I would certainly hope so.

Why wouldn't it? It caps at the operator's own rates.

NX's Regional rate is the same for ALL of its services, including those that go 'cross-border'.
