Maybe the community could run their own bus service??

Thanks very much Michael for providing that link.

Thanks for that good news, Adam;

I love First Worcester to get extra DD work, and your info regarding temporary allocations and "visitors" stops me from getting disappointed when they aren't for normal service, and don't stay !

Interesting food for thought above, thanks sockin and Adam. That is the sort of info that needs presenting at the meeting, and I think the county council may need to consider a short-term subsidy for:- (a) extra buses serving Eckington, Pershore, NORTON PARKWAY (The site of), and London Road. (b) ex...

Thanks Adam. I agree about the terrible traffic light timing, and also I think that traffic volumes along this route must vary also - In the second half of September, I have observed the outbound buses doing the right-turn onto the Bath Road in as little as 10 minutes after their timetabled departur...

I caught a glimpse of this bus (or 67647) today, and it had the front "WORCESTER" applied, but it also looked like something had been "suffixed" - in white' - but this could well have been a trick of the light ! :o I've been looking-out for this bus, and now there's a photo of i...

DD12, you will be pleased to know I managed to run the 1645 Service 32 spot on time today, and I have "Red Midland" as my witness! For reasons unknown the passenger numbers from the school were down about one-third today, and my bus 33403 which is a fine and noble steed capable of a stead...

On the Worcester News website today, is another article about the recent cut-backs ( - the 382 in particular).
There is to be a meeting at Pershore Town Hall on 13th October, which apparently will be attended by our MD, and an MD from STAGECOACH !

Not done that one this term, but before the holidays the afternoon service ran dead to the Hospital from Warndon and worked a 38 to the City. It has probably changed this for this year.

Thanks anyway, Adam.

Can anyone tell me, please, what the next use - in service is - after the PM S50 ?
I have seen it return to Crowngate, and park-up, but that was during a previous incarnation of the timetables etc.
(I'm wondering if the vehicle might be available for a further use).
Thanks.

Regarding the 365 leaving the depot 10 mins earlier, I wonder if it will it be able to get through and out-of the congested school terminus on time (?)

32067 .... the curse continues !!
