It's too costly to have spare vehicle when u only have one bus. Insurance for public service vehicle is expensive.

We have already purchased two MPD Dennis Darts both 51 Plate. R470 and R743 both already scrapped. We have also purchased another 51 Dennis Dart Caetano which will arrive in couple of weeks time.

Does anyone know what Sandwell Travel are going to do once the DDA compliance rules come in to place for single decker buses from 1/1/2016. I believe that Sandwell Travel currently operate quite a few low floor but non DDA compliant darts. Will they get rid of them or will they upgrade them to DDA compliant (which would probably be quite easy and not to expensive to do). I believe that N227 TPK / R470 LGH / R743 BMY / R746 FGX are all not DDA compliant. Also does anyone know if W773 URP is DDA compliant as i am not entirely sure if this vehicle is DDA compliant or not.
Looking at Sandwell Travels Timetables, they only seem to require 5 buses plus a spare or two perhaps to operate their services so they only require 2 or 3 DDA Compliant vehicles at the moment to for fill the legislation coming into place.
