What happened last night on the By pass in small heath as X1 X2 came down green lane

For some reason 74s are still following the football diversion even though the road is now clear, leaving Birmingham road without buses for a while a lot of people are waiting for buses.

I go to every West Brom home game and it clearly states on the bus stops along Birmingham Road 'no buses for upto 90 minutes after the end of the game'. Today's match finished about 5pm so you messaging that at 6:03pm is still within that 90 minute window. Any passengers waiting clearly cannot read the VERY LARGE TEXT stating this on the bus stop!

You do realise it was a Sold out Hawthorns, the Fans may have cleared but Traffic probably hadn't it is closed 90 minutes after a game. It wasn't 90 minutes. And How do you know it was clear there was 26K assuming Norwich brought a full allocation at the Ground. I ay no expert but 26K don't disperse in 1 hour. The Main core has but the Car Traffic and a lot of Pedestrains further down and the Visiting Fans will need to be cleared by the Police. The Albion takes exceptionally long with J1 of the M5 being a nightmare

The posters have been taken down now for a start because I don't know if you realised my username I do go to the games too, I know about diversion but when 74s are going up sometimes they radio to say it's clear.

Yes, I do realise it's a sell out, not sure if you have read my username but I would of thought that was a big give away that I'm a West Bromwich Albion fan, I know it was clear because I was there, all Norwich coaches was cleared and on the motorway, motorway was also clear and running smoothly some buses went on diversion when it wasent really necessary.

It is necessary to get all traffic away safely and then to reopen Halfords Lane and let the Traffic away safely. It's been done for years and it works. They might want the Albion Players to leave without hassle. It is to manage Traffic and to not overwhelm the M5 as the Fans are let out slowly.

Halfords lane was opened, coaches on Halfords lane was cleared, everything was fine.
