Some road closed signs have appeared on Belchers Lane. An inspector has gone down and found no work taking place and cannot identify who has closed the road, and no planned road closure has been notified.
Station Rd, Stechford was closed for most of the day, could these road closed signs be something to do with this? There were diversion signs leading up to the Belchers Ln area on Bordesley Green East as well?

The 11's (Both Social/DTS/NX) have been diverted in that area for most of the day - Flaxley Rd, Audley Rd, Flaxley Rd, Chuch Rd, Bordesley Green East, Station Rd, normal line of route.
I was on 4294 earlier, on the 11A and as it got to the Fox and Goose a passenger got up asking "if it was the 14".

It has since reopened at about 15:30, this afternoon
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

National Express get advance notice of all planned roadworks and road closures and can object. Only ones NX should not be advised of are emergency ones like repairing burst water mains, so if not planned reason should be obvious

If thats the case, whats stopping them from just carrying on and serving the Hospital (and Small Heath) and maintaining that link, can't they send them up Station Rd and Bordesley Green East and terminate there? It'd only add a few extra minutes to the journey? The hospital stop has alway seemed a fairly busy stop to me whenever i've used it?
So people on that route who want to go to the Hospital have to catch 3 (97 - 11 -28) buses instead of where they could usually just get 1 bus?

Probably running dead back to garage but forgot to change destination display.

Broken down bus blocking the road somewhere by the City Centre (must be blocking the right turn off Park Street by Masshouse Lane)

Suttons and Birchfield Road using Dale End.

Buses that terminate on The Priory Queensway uphill stops have got to go past the Coach Station to enter the City Centre from Moor Street
