All the lichfield road routes are on diversion it seems
The 65 is on diversion for half its route this morning instead of going up lichfield road it goes up expressway then gravelly hill north before turning onto fentham road to resume its route on streetly road
 For the 66 it then from star city goes up heartlands parkway then from there takes the 11c route to erdington high street
The 67 has the most similar just joining the expressway at spaghetti junction

Thanks for that!
I notice work now starts at 9pm rather than the previous 10pm. A shame bus stop notices were never changed accordingly.

Now continuing until 29th September!

Yet, we have contradictions in all the information. The bus stops have finally been updated to show 'until further notice' and the timings being 8pm-6am.
NX say 10pm-6am and the comment above mentions 9pm-6am.

WN 16 diverted via Himley (its old route) rather than serving Swindon and Hinksford.

Burst water main in Lichfield Road. Road closed from 14th June until further notice. Services 65/67 diverting via Aston Expressway. (Info on TfWM website)

28 diversion: Stechford Lane, Cotterills Lane.
14 diversion: Washwood Heath Road, fox and goose, Stechford Lane.

14 can't use Cotterills Lane as only scanias and platinums fit under the bridge.
Noticed people, elderly etc waiting at stops not being served to.

When they all start having fisticuffs with weapons down there, you can't expect much else.

And ever since all this 'updated' information mentioning September and/or until further notice, the viaduct has been open every night with buses following their normal route.

Diversion earlier today at 11.
95: Burney Lane, Alum Rock Road, Washwood Heath Road.
11A: Burney Lane, Alum Rock Road, Washwood Heath Road, u turn at Southern Road junction, Washwood Heath Road.
28: Alum Rock Road, Washwood Heath Road, u turn at Southern Road junction, Washwood Heath Road

Also noticed 4496 missed the Southern Road junction where buses normally turn and then did a u turn in the middle of the Washwood Heath Road where the dual carriageway ends by Foley Road. Followed by 6134 doing the same thing.

Advance one for part of the day Saturday. 

Pelsall Carnival is on, so services 8, 9 & Wct 25 will be on diversion. 

Nx is using part of the Foundry Lane area to divert, not sure about the 25, but I suspect Ryders Hayes might be cut off.
