Apparently they're going to take the competition on the 530 and raise it to a different route out of city!

that's what I was hinting at...

Good on them! :) Seems like Arriva are getting more and more competition... Over their dominant areas of operation, they've got at least Midland Classic, Central Buses, Select Bus and now Banga all having a go...

Just to say this is probably gonna be like the 82, 6 journeys all together for the day.

I fear you may be right... Where they seem most successful is the 530 and 545 routes where they have a loyal following I don't personally think Arriva have really been able to impact...

I'd like to see them maybe focus on building real route presence by switching from corridors that they only have 5/6 journeys per day onto routes where they can make a real impact...

Soon there'll be Select Wolves-Cannock, Banga Wolves-Telford, NX Wolves-Cannock and Stafford.

mranon

they didnt last long did they? apparently both were very troublesome according to a driver

Trident 4194

I'm surprised that centro let them run 5 minutes earlier than what Arriva do. Arriva won't be too happy

They did the same on the 82 until the start of the year when the NX timetable change took place.
