The 424 has some narrow roads on it, not to bad with the MPDs that VIP use on the route but remember when Diamond sometimes used longer Darts (and a SPD at least once).

519 Newport - Shrewsbury! Goes down tight country lanes!! I driver coaches down the same road a regularly have to wait for the bus to pass.

What about the 810 in Cannock, on longford estate where i live Carlisle Road ( which isnt too wide anyway ) can be a nightmare at busy times with parked cars ive been on green bus leopards before when theyve just got stuck lol

The 25 reditch to statford, one of the nicest but tightest routes ive ever been on, nothing qiite like rumberling arround a country lane just a bit wider than the bus at what seems like hight speeds complete with blind bends and humback bridges, winner for me atm

aye the 26 is tight in places but the 350 Redditch - Worcester was tight in places when run by Red Diamond not so sure about it now. and there was a school route that was tight around Earls Common Worcestershire too if i remember rightly from what a First driver told me.
Midland Red West, one of the best Companies to serve Redditch, with some of the best buses.

The 81 is tight in places. The 57 gets tight in ettingshall. the 89 high heath area. the roads around tettenhall on the 1 are quite narrow especially with some parked cars and oncoming buses. Bellamy lane is tight on the 25A. The 68 is tight in long knole.

The road leading to/from the a41 into Bilston Bus Station. Just off the mini island, in front of Barclays, room for one bus and no more!

The 145 is pretty tight on those country roads between Burcot and Barnt Green.
