Coming home from work today, saw one of PBs mini E200s heading down Birchfield Road from the Perry Barr roundabout ~18:30 seemingly in service (people on board) displaying "54A Tanhouse Avenue".
Can't even begin to guess which way it was going

Quarry bank high street and mount pleasant in full closure tonight. Was not expecting that. Thought that was on this coming Monday. Maybe they are running ahead but I did ask someone manning the road closure and they said possibly another week of evening closures?

Tonight they are working on the middle of the junction so only traffic using the A4036 can travel. All other traffic diverted via coppice lane/merry hill as usual.

I know there's diversions for the Vaisakhi festival in Handsworth, but I just saw an 11C in service on the ring road in Newtown!!  Man that's quite far off route

Air ambulance, maybe? ??? If not, can someone inform me of that 'set' diversion? I recall somebody stating that there is a diversion set in place, in the evnt of the air ambulance landing at the Childrens Hospital..

4853 on the 33 and a B6TL ALX400 on the 67 used the normal line of route into the City Centre at about the same time though?

Think it was just traffic issues. Had 3 X51s in the space of as many minutes heading out of town earlier
