When coming out of the West Brom game this afternoon after the match, the traffic management people had cocked up and allowed traffic along Birmingham Road in both directions - usually the outbound route is shut to clear all the fans first. 

This led to absolute chaos as cars and at least 3 74s towards West Bromwich were forced onto the wrong side of the road also delaying inbound traffic.

How such incompetence happened I have no idea as Birmingham Road outbound has been shut after games for many years.

That is surprising even for Youth games at The Hawthorns they close Birmingham Road, was Halfords Lane closed. At some point someone somewhere should have seen this was wrong

Temporary traffic lights at junction of Wake Green Road and Yardley Wood Road in Moseley had failed (again) this evening causing delays and disruption to the 2 and 3 services, as well as the 1, 5 and 41 as well presumably.
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
