Bus routes are set to be changed and some services cut altogether in and around Leamington, Warwick and Kenilworth - here are the details
Stagecoach Midlands is now looking for passenger views on upcoming network changes.
Stagecoach Midlands said the changes - which come into effect around February 22-23 - are "focused on making services more reliable with a few late evening journeys removed, which carry very few customers".

Phil Medlicott, managing director at Stagecoach Midlands, said: “We are aiming to improve the reliability of services in February and want as many people to provide their comments as possible”
“We want people to see this as a positive change to help combat the worsening congestion we see on our roads.
"The journeys which we are considering removing carry only 1 or 2 passengers. While we don’t want to inconvenience anyone it doesn’t make sense to run buses capable of carry around 60 people for so few”
