Route 1 is a bus route in the West Midlands County; it is operated by National Express West Midlands.

Information[]

The route was originally two separate routes; one numbered service 558 operating between Dudley and Wolverhampton and 501 operating between Wolverhampton and Tettenhall Wood but in July 2012 as part of the Wolverhampton and West Walsall bus review the two routes became the service 1.

At present, NXWM uses a fleet of branded Alexander Dennis Enviro400H buses on the route with some new in 2011 and some in 2013. Prior to this, Dennis Trident 2 with Alexander ALX400 bodies were used on the 1 and previously the 501 and 558.

Until their license was revoked by the Traffic Commissioner in 2015, Travel Express also operated the route between Wolverhampton and Tettenhall Wood, having previously operated the 501. They used Dennis Dart SLFs with Alexander ALX200 and Plaxton Pointer bodies and previously older step-entrance Dennis Darts.
