The Sutton services and the 28 are being diverted off Sutton Road. Apparently the road has collapsed. Using Orphanage Road to Chester Road and up to The Yenton or down towards The Bagot for the 28

The Suttons are having fun today. Erdington diversion still on although slightly amended, but also Walmley Village is closed sue to a gas leak so Webster Way is been used for X4, X14 and 71

There's been a RTA on Barnes Hill by the ASDA, doesn't say where the 29 is being diverted to though.

To Birmingham: Barnes Hill, continue Barnes Hill to the top, straight ahead at roundabout, 1st right Woodcock Lane/Cromwell Lane, end of the road right Genners Lane, right Jiggins Lane (22 route), right Stonehouse Hill, continue to NLR

Cheers. I figured they'd go that way if anything.

Noticed all sorts of varieties on this today. Buses using either Orchard Road, Holly Lane or Chester Road to get back on track

West Midlands Fire Service closed Warwick Road in Acocks Green this morning at about 08:30 right after the island, resulting in 2 E200 MMC on the 37 getting stuck.
A 37 heading to the City Centre was parked up near the Inn on The Green pub.
Diverted via Warwick Road, Olton Boulevard East, Shirley Road, Warwick Road, I think.

Have just seen a City bound (I assume) 94 turning left from Water Orton Road onto Chester Road. There is an evening diversion on Auckland Drive this week (also affecting 96 and X12), but I thought they were able to resume normal Route from Hurst Lane North?

You talking about the 94 by any chance? @CBBUser

There's been reports on Facebook that Bear wood Road at the junction with Hagley Road is shut due to a fatal collision involving a bus.

Unsure of whether it's still the case, but clockwise-bound 8s have been diverted from a section of Ladywood Middleway due to a car fire. Caused quite a bottleneck outbound from city.
