Alongside our annual bus network reviews, we work closely with operators year-round to monitor services and make improvements. To keep the network running efficiently, operators may make minor changes throughout the year.
These changes must be registered with us six weeks in advance, though urgent updates can happen with less notice. Below is a list of changes we’re aware of.
We aim to update online timetables, journey planners, and at-stop information before changes take effect, but this isn’t always possible. Please check your journey before you travel to ensure you have the latest information.
Ticketing
Some bus routes will change operator.
nBus is now the only ticket for bus travel and can be used on any operator in the West Midlands.
