Diversions

Definitely a 9 branded MMC outside the Brasshouse at around 8.45 this morning (inbound) with hazard lights on and nobody on board. There was no other bus in front. Unless we are talking about different breakdowns.

might have been the time when the lights were stuck on red

There are notices up on buses at AG that say the 1 will be diverted via Birmingham University this Saturday while a tree is removed from Priory Road.
Church Road, Edgbaston Park Road, Bristol Road, Priory Road, normal line of route.

Is that even possible? Church Road doesn't have a junction with Bristol Road. Presumably it would be Bristol Road, Priory Road then normal line of route?

Thats what they've put up on the buses (4250 has one),  but yes it should say Priory Road.

59, 69, 89 on diversion in Wolverhampton. No info on nxbus.co.uk! Luckily, networkwestmidlands.com got info about this: https://www.networkwestmidlands.com/plan-your-journey/disruptions/##4299_Centro

Saw an X12 go down drews lane today about 16 50 anyone know why? (Went the old 72 route)

Because it was the quickest route at the time. X12 can go that way at any time

Traffic up to the Spine Road on Bromford Lane was really busy even at 18:00 when I went past from Drews Lane. Even the Bromford Road was busy from the Traffic Lights up to Farnhurst Road meaning X12/X70 would have trouble turning into Farnhurst Road due to inconsiderate car drivers @Jack D

Just seen two 8As coming down Rupert Street (Nechells) towards town, noticed Rocky Lane is closed so any guess which way they're diverting? Can't imagine how they'd get to Aston Cross without going all the way to Dartmouth Circus

Looks like broad st  shut buses going via bath row  both ways

Last night 87s seemed to be diverted via Rood End Road & Tat Bank Road as the Oldbury Road (towards Oldbury) was closed. Not sure if this is still the case

Due to the collapsed drain cover at the bottom of Broad Steet yesterday, the Hagley road services that use Broad Street were having to use Sheepcote Street diversion in-bound and then Sand Pits onto Ladywood Middleway to Five Ways out-bound.
