About 15 buses were stuck on Broad Street at about 15:30 today including, 5504, 5512, 6117, 2127 and 4262.
Due to part of the road being closed because of the Conservative Conference Party.

4199 on 129 went up Cradley high street then realised he went wrong way and went around the back of tesco and rejoined route again. Driver quite cheerful about it saying" taking you the scenic route" and " I don't charge extra"

Last Tuesday England U21's Were playing Bosnia Herzegovina At the Bescott Stadium in Walsall I was wondering were would the 45 divert to with the Bescott Being full of football fans. I was wondering were it could go to get West Bromwich and Walsall for example did it follow the 4, 4H, 4M  route to West Bram or the 311, 313 to Wednesbury then follow the 79 route to West Bram.

as far as i am aware there are no diversions when a match is played at Bescot. But if there was it would use the 4 route from the walstead road, right then left at the lights and then NLOR from Bescot Crescent to the dreaded Milton Street. and reverse from Walsall. this would only miss out Bescot then. you can't afford to miss out the entire route if you send it via Wednesbury!
an empty bus is a happy driver.

Having caught the 45 on matchdays several times it isn't diverted by Double deckers seem to get on there more on those days I think

Me & my sister were kicked off at the bottom of Milton Street when Elton John came to Bescot last year.

Just received an email to say the 99 is diverted due to......


Due to a burst sewer pipe on Pitman road at the junction of Hopedale road, Severn trent water have closed the road. 

I don't think I would want to go anywhere near there!
