X21 currently on its usual diversion whilst Weoley Avenue is yet again closed off. But the 46, which is supposed to do the same really, I've just seen go down Shenley Fields Road after Gibbins Road so maybe missing out Weoley Castle altogether. Yet the 46A before it appeared to follow it correctly so maybe the driver wasn't aware of the correct diversion. 
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

All saints way is closed, not too sure why, but services are diverting down vicarage road and down the express way into West Bromwich. I assume road works but I'm suprised they closed both sides on the same night.

Services affected:
4, 4M, 5, 40
