If the 98 and X64 were to take the Broad Street diversion would the terminus be the same?

I really like the idea of the 80/80A serving Broad Street, even if only temporarily.

I'd actually suggest 3rd option
80/80A via Islington Row and beyond to come into city via Pershore Road, since it doesn't have to serve any bus stops along the way this would be quicker to the markets

Which route will the 98 and X64 be taking?
All buses are being diverted via Broad Street, Great Charles Steet Queensway, Snow Hill Queensway, Colmore Circus Queensway, Priory Queensway, Moor Street Queensway, Smallbrook Queensway and rejoining the exsisting line of route at Holloway Circus.
80/A will use BS8 on the Priory Queensway as well as MS13 on Moor Street Queensway and SQ3 on Snow Hill Queensway.
For the market there are stairs and a lift down to the Markets on Smallbrook Queensway, if you get of at NS9 on Smallbrook Queensway.

Are the 98 and X64 now interworking because of this?
