Over in Staffordshire, most routes have been restored to pre-covid frequencies, but others are still far below that, or still not running at all. What I've outlined below hopefully gives a snapshot of how we aren't yet back to where we were in terms of frequencies.
The Arriva 1 Cannock - Walsall, previously every 20 minutes, still hasn't been restored (although there are alternative NX X51 buses on this route), whilst another Cannock-Walsall service, the 3, has been curtailed at Brownhills (no longer onto Walsall), with frequency reduced from largely half-hourly to hourly. The 70 Cannock-Wolverhampton has also gone from every 30 mins to 60 mins, although has been extended to New Cross Hospital.
D&G are still running a heavily reduced service into the county town of Stafford - whilst the 841 has been restored to a rough frequency of every 90 mins, this replaces every hour, or every half-hour on the stretch to the edge of Stafford. Meanwhile, on Saturdays this route goes from almost a M-F timetable to just 4 buses per day. The 14 to Eccleshall, Stone and Hanley goes from largely 1bph into Stafford to 1bp2h. So all is not quite as it was, although most of the town routes have been restored. This includes the 12 to Doxey, which has gone from one bus per hour (arriva) on Saturdays to 2bph (Select - previously only M-F), although arriva have also retreated on M-F, so on M-F it goes from 3bph (mixed) to 2bph (select). So more Saturday buses, but less weekday ones. Some operators (Select) have closed specific journeys to the travelling public (schools only), whilst others (First Potteries) have implemented duplicates for schoolchildren.
