Roadworks for the 529 on Sundays sees it diverted to Wolverhampton from Walsall Road past Willenhall Maccies through Shepwell Green and up to Rose Hill back to Willenhall at least these are on a Sunday doing that during the week would cause even more congestion due to long term roadworks on Rose Hill and Willenhall itself
Willenhall is a PITA at the moment!

Yes and the mayor wonders why buses are unreliable when you approve two massive sets of roadworks to be on at the same time putting more stress on the main roads to J10 and if J10 gets screwed the 529 is even worse along with the 37 and 41

Diversion 19/5 & 20/5 between 7pm & 6am.

Bloxwich High Street shut on the Leamore shops to Somerfield Road section, due to resurfacing.

X51 / 31 / 32 diverted via Leamore Lane & Somerfield Road.

(Service 29 is also listed as being diverted via the reverse of it's from Bloxwich route, but there's no later buses on that route to Bloxwich, only to Blakenall & I think the earliest bus departs 6am from Blakenall to Walsall!)

Bridgeman St shut so 39 on diversion along Wednesbury road. Don't know why it's shut as nothing seems to be happening under the bridge where it's been cordoned off.

Also 4,4H and 4M on diversion along Bescot Cresent and Wednesbury road in to Walsall because West Bromwich St is shut until 6pm. Coming out of Walsall they going along Caldmore Rd then Corporation St to Wednesbury road.

39 doesn't run on a Sunday so nothing affected could be due to a fire but nothing in the news about anything in Walsall do they even update the news on a Sunday. If it is still closed tomorrow the 39 will be diverted I personally wouldn't have it follow the 34/37 I would have it serve the Manor as normal then exit then right rather than straight back past the Manor then left at the lights passing the old Forge Hammer Pub then right onto Corporation Street West Crossing the Railway to then turn right onto Wednesbury Road I believe they have done that when Old Pleck Road or Bridgeman Street Was closed and it ran as the 38 remembering passing near my old Flat and the old Kendrick Homes Site, sure one driver did get lost and we ended up on Tasker Street passing my old flat. 39 to Stowlawn to maybe skip by the Manor and follow the Corporation Street West Route then left back onto Old Pleck Road or to the Manor Skip the stop for the Walsall then right at the lights to pick up on the main road opposite.

Wouldn't it have been easier for both sets of services to follow the same diversion?
