Not DDA Compliant. Tony has said WB and PN have permission to use the Mercs up until this date.

Its because cars are coming through the pedestrian zone on new street. This puts too much traffic outside the bus station and the the buses cant get out! Once its queued up theres nothing that can be done. It took some services 30 minutes to get out of the station yesterday.
Sandwell council were going to put cameras up ok New Street to stop cars using that particular road but the taxi drivers objected it because they would have to drive around the ring road!!
Bit of a joke if you ask me, and NX, Diamond and Centro are stupid for letting it keep happening and losing money left, right and centre

West brom bus station:
Bus companies should send the lost mileage bill to Sandwell council for not sorting out New st, so what a few taxis carrying a few people have to go around the ring road , buses move the masses many thousands are being inconvenienced by the total in action from the council.

Does anyone know why the style of destinations on the 74 & 75 changed? Just curious because they didn't seem that bad when the full screen destination was in use.
