6956 on the 80 tonight

It was supposed to do the 23:25 departure from Town - it got to NS10 outside New Street and the road through to the markets was closed off by roadworks about 5 mins before it got there

The driver parked the bus in the road and got off and started smoking a cigarette and presumably ringing control for the diversion. He stated that it wasn't going to anywhere else in Birmingham and will be going straight back out to West Bromwich.

He proceeded around the loop and up to the Mailbox, Smallbrook Queensway and back out of Town. 

There's gonna be a fair few upset customers who have to wait an extra hour for the last 80 if it even goes to the markets and New Street with no explanation.

2236 on the 82/87

4611 on the 50

2168 is on the 11A

not long saw 1795 on the 87 after

just my two cents

surely you don't need to change any of the routes and just add a peak time X20 service similar to the current 936/937 set up

2237 was on the 12 yesterday

saw a Solo in Ward End displaying 93
must have been route learning the route

2214 - 11C to Acocks Green

1797 was also on the 11

31/32 branded Streetlite was on the 50 earlier today

6932 (X10 branded) on the 126

6862 (23/24 branded) was on the 6 earlier

That's ridiculous
They should give plenty of notice to passengers so people are aware the changes are going ahead in September and have time to plan and change there journeys. And there should also have notices onboard including the ones people can take with them.

well National Express have the monopoly anyway so you would just have to deal with it and adapt to the changes

Routes 3, 8/8A, 9/9A, 13/13A, 14/14A, 17/17A, 18, 21/21A all have changes to the timetables

I believe that is everything based off what the website is showing.

With thanks to @Lukeeee2018  over in the Cov version of this thread, some of these variations have started to appear on the bustimes registration with some more basic information:

EDIT: https://bustimes.org/registrations/PD0001111/75

Service X529 withdrawn.

Some of what I've gathered looking myself:

46 - QE Hospital to Northfield via Kings Norton and Hawkesley (replacing part of the 48)
48 - West Bromwich to Weoley Castle (revised route between QE and Northfield - not clear about the 48)

41 - QE Hospital to Acocks Green via Moseley (replacing part of the withdrawn 1A)
 
2 - Dudley to Merry Hill (withdrawing the 2A)
X10 - City to Gornal Wood (diverted via Wallows Road - guessing to cover the 2A withdrawal)

X529 is withdrawn
10A is withdrawn

80A is renumbered to 80

12/12A - City to Dudley (revised route between Bearwood and City)

17/17A - Dudley to Stourbridge (re-routed between Gornal and Dudley)

27 - Maypole to Cofton Hackett (revised route - not clear about CH)
X20 is withdrawn (replaced by service 20 - didn't specify about the 20)

4/4A - Birmingham to Solihull/Gospel Oak (4A route change)

27/27A - Dudley to Wolverhampton (has a route change)

94 - City to Chelmsley Wood (an addition of service 95)
96 - Kingstanding to Chelmsley Wood (revised route)

2232 is on the 87
