Not sure how long its been like this but the SLT Website has been given a new look:

http://www.sltbus.com/

EDIT: I have found a couple of mistakes and overall the Website looks rushed (more so on the Timetables page)

The News Page says there will be another Website so hopefully that one is better presented.

The website still has quite a few old timetables on it (635, 640/641 and 715 to name some).

The new website has actually been up for a while now, at least a month I'm sure, as for the new additions all I'll say is that it seems new Management like their Solos has the fleet has a bias towards them, just hope bigger buses are found especially for the new tenders that start in July

It was a frequent complaint in Worcestershire when Diamond took over First's operations there that the vehicles were too small. The management simply denied that this was the case.

The subsided routes are the ones which are less likely to lose capacity (except as a result of funding cuts) as the ITT will specify a minimum service frequency, a minimum seating capacity and the maximum fares which can be charged. It's not uncommon for contracts to require a 35+ seater vehicle unless the minimum service frequency is exceeded.
