Research confidence

30%

Plausible loop intent; three separate mapped parts and unfinished connections.

A weighted assessment of the research supporting this unverified route reference. It is not a probability that a bus runs today, a service guarantee, or a measure of timetable accuracy.

Why this score?
  • Historical source clarity15 / 20

    The written loop intent and named street order are understandable, with bounded terminal and connector gaps.

  • Mapped extent completeness10 / 20

    Main corridors are represented, but several local connections and the full Fox Hill terminal return are not established.

  • Geometry consistency5 / 20

    Three disconnected parts, eight sequence breaks and a local direction conflict prevent accepting the stored itinerary as continuous.

  • Recent direct field evidence0 / 20

    No completed, reviewed ride record for this route is attached to the research baseline. Historical descriptions, map edits and unreviewed reports do not establish a currently observed full journey.

  • Independent field corroboration0 / 20

    No accepted independent check corroborates a dated route-specific field record in this baseline. Reuse of the historical official description is not independent observation.

What still needs checking

  • Confirm the final Fox Hill movement and closure at the named Prince Charles junction.
  • Resolve whether Pyfrom-to-Mackey is direct or abbreviates a connector; another source route names Bar 20 Corner in this area.
  • Define the East Hill Depot-to-Market-to-Duke through-path and distinguish any depot movement from passenger service.
  • Check the ordered mapped geometry and actual permitted turns independently; a readable street list does not establish them.
