Hi there, yesterday (Saturday 20th September) I caught the 76 back to Solihull from Kings Heath Vicarage Road, as I do everyday weekday. It then took nearly 10 minutes to reach the high street where 4352, 4342 and another YW Trident were parked up on the 35. They were trying to turn left however they couldn't due to the Police blocking the road off towards Birmingham. The 50s were turning down Vicarage Road and there was traffic chaos. Fortunately the 76 was unaffected apart from the traffic. Does anyone have any idea what was going on? Some said it was some kind of protest... Thanks in advance
P.S it was my lucky day really, as the south part of the high street was still open for the 76 and the driver kindly waited for me despite having loaded everyone else!
All I saw was a post on NXWM's Facebook page that buses were being diverted due to a 'police incident'.
The link to the page on their website was broken. Nothing reported in local media either.

Mm! Interesting reading. Thanks for providing the link.
I support the 20mph limit through Kings Heath high street and proximity sensors to lorries. Excellent idea.
