Its not a legal requirements for bus data to be shared in Wales. That’s why only the English routes are live. Hopefully some welsh data will be shared soon.

Will all buses for every company be showing tomorrow when the new law comes in?

That is the plan for all operators to share AVL data. I believe that some companies are having issues though and kind of gave up on BODS.

It will be interesting to see how it progresses and see how things update as there are a lot of not very tech savvy firms out there and unless they work with one of the big firms like Omnibus, Passenger, BusHub or Ticketer, they will need to do the stuff themselves.

Cumfybus haven't tracked since March/April last year, though the fleet list and map are still available on BusTimes, though it is outdated and slightly a mess.

Some user recently decided it was a good use of their time to make unnecessary depot changes in the Arriva Merseyside fleet, since having an account on BusTimes allows you to edit some vehicle details.

A recent update to BusTimes includes:
Ediitng statistics for approved, declined, or pending edits.
Reporting system.
Users that have advanced editing permissions (I.E. Livery editing) are noted as a trustworthy editors.

The user that as done it is now banned from bustimes

For some unknown reason, I can no longer change buses depots.

All i can really do is it make the depot blank, but then if I try and edit again, then the depot section disappears.

I hope I don't get banned for some simple error or not so good security measure.
