regular hourly daily bus service from Wolverhampton to Sedgley for many years, this route having started as a Midland Red service whose main custom was Baggeridge Colliery. Despite closing in 1968, for several years after closure additional short workings to Gospel End continued. In 1986, the 564 service was split with West Midlands Travel retaining the route along Mount Road and the Penn Common section being operated under Staffordshire County Council tender by Midland Red West until 1992. The tender was subsequently operated by a number of operators including Stevensons and Arriva Midlands. Over time the number of journeys across Penn Common dwindled until the last attempt at running the service was withdrawn in 2017. In August 2020, The Green Bus ran a commercial shopping service (582) to Kidderminster but this attracted little custom.
