DVSA 'investigating' Diamond buses after MP voices concerns over services
A Sandwell MP has claimed Diamond Buses are being investigated after she raised concerns over their running of services in West Bromwich.
Nicola Richards, MP for West Bromwich East, says she has been contacting Diamond since December 2022 regarding their running of the 45 and 16A bus services.
The MP's concerns focus on "a consistent pattern of buses being at the location, but not being in service" and of residents waiting a long time for their bus.
Now, Richards claims that after calling on the DVSA to investigate the transport provider, they have told her they will be launching an investigation.
The MP said: "Many constituents have raised with me concerns about Diamond Bus services, whether they are at West Bromwich Bus Station, or at a stop in Great Barr.
"They are waiting sometimes up to and over an hour for a bus.
"I have had no choice but to approach the DVSA to look into this.
