I know which way they would probably go but hard to explain

Genners Lane was closed during the day, which led to some interesting diversions!

X21, 18 and 002 went down Jiggins Lane, through California and then up Barnes Hill.

23 terminated on the Field Lane / Scotland Lane Roundabout

23 - Bartley Green
76 - Northfield
X20 - Birmingham Via Longbridge, Northfield & QE Hospital / University

PB50

Apparently the 41 service from Walsall to Willenhall is on diversion from 25th March due to Coppice Lane and Lucknow Rd being closed for 40 days. Diversion will be along Wesley Road, Straight Road,High Road,Sandbeds Road, Ashmore Lake Way and Ashmore Lake Road in both directions so I reckon delays possibly.

I went through there (on the m6) this morning and all of the roadworks on the m6 have been removed. I looked on the Highways England site and it gives the ETA as Spring 2024. Is the end in sight?

According to one.network, further work will take place  April 2-6 (eastern side by holiday inn) .

In April until June Diamond is diverting the 16A out of City via Carrs Lane due to Metro work. So all other buses will presumably follow the same diversion, That's lot of buses using Carrs Lane !

Where else do you expect them to go?

Unnecessarily confrontational response once again. He hasn't said that they shouldn't use that route, just an observation that the Carrs Lane route, which can be a bottle neck, will see a lot of traffic.

Good news having the Perry Barr services on Priory Queensway (near 65/66/67 stop), The Square Peg stop is OK but in peak hours it takes so long to get through Moor Street, Carrs Lane and Lower Bull Street. The outward journeys will be quicker getting to Lancaster Circus

Only just got used to the X51 by The Square Peg!

I'm not as keen, now means a longer walk to Moor Street for me to catch the X1/X2 to get to work. Yes it will speed up journeys exiting City but for other connections it's a bit unhandy. Personally, I hope these services go back to Carrs Lane come October!

Maybe this means the Bus Lane under Lancaster Circus (outbound) will be used by the X51.
