bewilders me why it's called S17 when there's no S15 nor S16... S15 sounds more appropriate

Or even 897 as the operating hours (6am-6pm) are quite odd for a "Shopper Hopper" route.

well that's rather similar to S8, which used to operate hourly even during peak hours (more odd for a shopper hopper...)

Commonsense has prevailed with the Midday 884W Wedderburn service, with one bus doing the return trip. Currently one goes to Wedderburn and returns special, meanwhile, one goes special to Wedderburn to form a service.

if that's where bickle vale is, then i have to wonder why 38 is not mentioned, maybe because it goes via may farm?

That is where Bickley Vale is - it is an error in the Busabout website.

I dont know whether the new depot is operational as yet from that point of view. I do know that the timetables are available in hard copy.

As are new region 2 and 15 region maps.

In addition to my previous post, the region 2 map states that current routes, timetables (and ticketing) will continue to operate,
