From 28 January 2018, Stagecoach Supertram will be making some minor changes to their timetables to make journeys more punctual and reliable. To coincide with this, we want you to help us shape the new SL1 timetable so that we can continue to provide people with the best possible connections to their Stagecoach Supertram at Middlewood.

...

Supertram are changing their timetable from 28 January 2018 so that on Mondays to Fridays between approximately 0900 and 1600 and all day Saturdays, trams will operate every 12 minute

So, despite the fleet increase, the "Yellow" daytime frequency drops to every twelve minutes. Presumably similar changes to the Blue service?

I noticed as part of the changes it is proposed to either withdrawn the evening & Sunday diversion to Garden Village or the one to Unsliven Bridge, I thought the 57 full route journeys at those times withdrawn following the introduction of the SL1 diversions? So looks like one or both may end up with no service.
