New timetable available here
Due to the 145 service becoming increasing affected by M5 motorway traffic during the morning peak period, there will be some minor timetable changes from 24th April to improve reliability.
The 07:22 Bromsgrove departure will now depart at 07:15 arriving at Droitwich at 07:47.
The 08:00 Droitwich departure will now depart at 07:55 arriving at Bromsgrove at 08:36
This allows for some additional time should the service be held up when going through the morning M5 motorway traffic.
There will be no change to Saturday services.
