A circular route for the No.1 service was proposed as well as changes to the 31 route. A proposed bus to the QE hospital would be welcomed. - Parliamentary Boundary Changes – consultation was now open for comments on the proposed changes. Acocks Green would no longer be part of the Yardley constituency which would stretch from Aston Expressway to the airport.
