It's a pitty the 19 / 20 Cannock circulars don't run anymore would have been ideal for people accessing shops and work during this difficult time. Used to serve the Orbital retail park (for Sainsburys) and Tesco heath hayes.

Only serving New Cross temporarily, not a permanent change to the route.

Only on Wolverhampton bound journeys though which doesn't make much sense?? Lets say you catch it from Cannock to get to New Cross, on your return journey you'll have to go in the wrong direction to Wolvo and remain on the bus??

The only way to make it work in the time availalble.  We thought the extra 5-8 minutes it would take to get home again would be worth it to avoid having to change buses.
