Carrs Lane in Brum is closed off by police, everything carrying on down Moor Street Queensway unloading at the 97/17 stops and turning around at Hotel La Tour
My X51 driver didn't realise so instead of turn straight onto Albert Street had to do a u turn by the church to come back down

I'm not sure all the drivers are aware of the diversion, seen some YW and BC buses going up Priory Queensway to turn around although that is probably helping manage the traffic build up if anything.

Reopened about 30 minutes ago

Not an official diversion, but the driver of my 65 into town from work gave up on the traditional rush hour game that is "squeeze as many vehicles onto Dartmouth Circus as possible", went down the ring road, up to Gosta Green and back to Corporation Street

---Edit---
Ok so this morning 07:40 waiting at Gosta Green for the 66, I see a 65 do a u turn on the ring road Lister Street junction
Something more official now perhaps?

There was a 99 on Hagley Rd by Five Ways Island at about 17.45 this evening bound for the City Centre, (presumably diverted onto Church Rd at Edgbaston Park Road? or just lost)

They were both diverted around the Clock Garage island yesterday afternoon, using Heathland Avenue and the road next to the Hunters Moon



Sutton New Road, Erdington was closed for a time this morning due to an RTC on the to Sutton side. The usual diversions applied to services. A couple of 110s used York Road onto Summer Lane and back to Six Ways. At least none turned right towards the bridge. A 28, 66, 2 Sutton's and a 966 were stuck behind the accident

Ended up having to show a 957 driver an unofficial diversion tonight due to him not being aware of the lode lane diversion. Went via moat lane; yew tree lane; Damon's parkway; Hampton lane; Warwick road, instead of Warwick road - dove house lane!
