I would guess the length of time all these services have been using this diversion, some locals have gotten used to this, so keeping the 126 going this way maintains some level of service through that area behind the ICC.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Why are the 23 and 24 moving stops from MS10 to MS9? I don't see what difference it makes as they're right next to each other anyway.
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

Perhaps 9/12/12a/13/13a will not stop there

QuoteThe New Street and Moor Street stops on there are both busy stops as far as I know. Also it will restore the link to Broad Street, the 126 and Harborne Roads have had in the past.

Though time I caught that route several months ago on the 19th January 2022.
 When it got to the New Street stop the bus announcement said "This Bus Terminates Here all change please". I think the bus had some layover there and went out on the 23 having come in on the 24.
But I did think surely it shouldn't do that on that route, and people should be able to continue onto Colmore Row, etc.


The driver usually changes the destination to go back out to Harborne before the bus gets to New Street. I can only assume that was one of the exceptions.
23 - Bartley Green
76 - Northfield
X20 - Birmingham Via Longbridge, Northfield & QE Hospital / University

28 has been on diversion in Erdington for at least a week now as well. They come up Station Road, then up to Six Ways and u turn back down.
Last week I saw one using South Road on its way to Great Barr.
