Quote from: Rachvince53 on January 17, 2024, 12:24:05 PMThe nearest stop appears to be Bentley Bridge Retail Park, served by buses 9 (to Walsall), 53 and 65. All depart from the bus station. 

You should alight in Bentley Bridge at the stop by the car parks cross the road and head in the same direction as the bus will take as far as the next island. Turn right into Backhouse Lane and cross the road. Continue down Backhouse Lane to the island and then turn left along Wednesfield Way. Sidings Close is about halfway along this road on the left.

Hope this helps.
Many thanks   I had no problem finding the tool station
Mind the Gap.....?:-)

   Can someone tell me if the Demo bus which was in use in 2022  ie  4798
   is still available for use on our system or has it been returned to Wrights?

Does anyone know if Carolean Coaches are going to be put on bustimes? Because of current they aren't showing on there and they take over running the 19 from Next Sunday (11/02)

It is not up to BusTimes to do this. Once Carolean's timetable data is available in the BODS feeds, then they will show on BusTimes. I presume this will be done under arrangement with TfWM.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

You've seen the pictures of striking miners back in the 80's being driven into work in buses with grills on the windows.

Why dont they put grills on dedicated buses for the route?

They could call Gavin, technician for Autoglass and his special resin
