4507 out on 81/81A today. Thought that was due off as non-DDA?

4512 is also out on the 43 and I thought the same.

4512-5 (the examples refurbished at Thorntons back in 2012) are supposedly DDA compliant.

Difference is that 4512 is one which has been internally refurbished, and it was suggested last month that the Volvo B10BLEs that were internally refurbished were also modified to become DDA-compliant at the same time. Looking at photos on Flickr, it does seem that one of the 'tip-up' seats on the offside is missing, similar to the Go North East examples recently modified at Thorntons.

4507 hasn't been internally refurbished, but I can't imagine that Arriva would send a bus out on the road illegally?

Come on Dan this is Redcar we're talking about...
There's always the clause that you can use a non DDA bus for 20 days a year of course, but I'm guessing that it shouldn't be out and indeed I messaged some people as soon as I spotted it this morning.

That doesn't really add to what has already been noted, given there's no destination on display.

It's sat in the stand on Stockton High Street (B) that is served by the 15, indicating that it is operating the service.
