Hi Paula
There are a couple of resources that are likely to help you work out the times you need. One is the ISSA cleaning times http://www.issa.com/?m=articles&event=view&id=3034 (http://www.issa.com/?m=articles&event=view&id=3034) and the other is the BICS best value guide http://www.bics.org.uk/shop/shop.aspx?cat=4 (http://www.bics.org.uk/shop/shop.aspx?cat=4)
There are also some relatively inexpensive bits of software that are also useful - I'd have a look at http://www.bus-perf.co.uk/6.html (http://www.bus-perf.co.uk/6.html)
Email me if you'd like any more help
