Vehicles under 7.5t MGW (basically means 709D sized vehicles) - 1st Jan 2015
Single Decks over 7.5t (MPDs, Solos and up to Enviro300s etc) - 1st Jan 2016
Double Decks - 1st Jan 2017
Coaches (only on registered services) - 1st Jan 2020

So in reality, 90% of step entrances have at least a year left. Contract routes are also excluded, so the B10Ms mentioned may well last on.

That explains why First Potteries don't seem to be rushing to get rid of their former First Manchester Darts (which are ramp-free...)

Thanks for the correction with the dates... Following on from that, does anyone know of any planned 'minibus farewells' over the next 10 days or so...?
