Buses are stuck on Masshouse Lane. saw a picture of a Walsall MMC and a 33 Enviro400 stuck there on Facebook. 55, 66 and 94s are terminating by the ring road. Also Moor Street is not been used due to the hill by the 50 stop X1, X2, 6, 60 and 97s are terminating by the Markets

Outer Circle is suspended

Can see service been pulled soon with the conditions
The AG 5 has been suspended.

Why are the WA 11 and 13 terminating at Castle Gate Island? The 74, 87, 126 and 42 seem to be getting into Dudley fine as they aren't listed on the NX website, so why can't the 11 and 13? If it's because of Trindle Road, then can't they just leave Dudley the same way as the other routes do?

Edit: Just refreshed the page, it seems like the 74 and 87 are also terminating at Castle Gate too now, but that still leaves the 126 and 42 unless they've been missed off.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

Credit to NX for the frequency and detail of the updates but there are a few inconsistencies on there - for example the 29 is unable to serve Stonehouse Hill, but no mention of the 22/23 missing it out.

The rest of Central routes still running are finishing after half 10 departures from City

It missed Stonehouse Hill out on the way into town but when I got on it outbound at about half 12, it went up Stonehouse Hill despite the 22 missing it out going the other way. There were a few things that weren't always up to date but I guess It's hard to update so many so regularly.
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

Lets face it.

Its a lot better in the social media era of National Express than it would have been in the prehistoric era of Wmpte!

By the way, did all the travel shops shut early at 4pm?

The X10 is running.
It is now, it was suspended earlier this morning.

It said on nx website it was suspended?
It's been updated since then, the roads on the X10 are safe enough so the route can run.

Unusual sights along the Bristol Road today with 7 or 8 YW vehicles parked up just down from the Black Horse with the 18 and 27 unable to do their full routes, and a couple of X64s parked up at the Weoley Park Rd junction.

Yes I am aware, that was simply a mistake. The X10 has been running all morning.
