Public meeting on bus service shake-up

A CRUCIAL meeting on the future of local bus services is taking place in Kingshurst later this month.
Transport for West Midlands has confirmed that the Nos X12, 58 and 71 are set to be altered in around six weeks time.
A shake-up of routes is due to take effect at the start of September and the event is a chance for residents to find out more about the plans.
There is likely to be a lot of local interest, given regular complaints about the standard of public transport in the north of the borough.
In recent years there has been particular criticism of the routes serving Kingshurst, which residents claim was cut off by a previous set of changes.
The meeting to explain the latest set of proposals will be taking place at Seeds of Hope on July 26, starting at 7pm.
Full details of the changes will be included in the next edition of our digital newspaper.
