Nothing on network westmidlsnd or nxbus about the diverting the buses  in moor st

Well I'm telling you that is what's happening...For proof, here's my photo of 6731 outside of Birmingham Coach Station earlier whilst on a 997 to Walsall...

Sh4318

My 80 from Birmingham was diverted, it completely missed out Devonshire Road, carrying on along Stoney Lane (89), Manor Road (DIA 21) and Holly Lane (48/48A), past Holly Lodge School back to usual line of route. The diversion actually took me closer to my house than the standard route (could've sworn I heard an E400 (80) outside my house last night)
Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
"Around the corner" routes: 21, 89
Local routes: 12/A, 48/A
Semi-local routes: 54, 80, 87

Most used routes in bold

There putting speed bumps on Devonshire Road diversion should only be during day 09:30-15:00 from the diversion notice I had on running board yesterday.

Currently on 7000 (in service on the 16) on diversion in Newtown.. Appears to be enforced in both directions

Original diversion was to use Summer Lane in both directions but as I turned up on a 74 found a police van blocking the end of the road by the time I'd got through to AVL there was about 20 buses stuck on Summer Lane. They did open it after a while. Buses going in where using Summer Lane buses going out using Newton.

I was hoping to get some photos of the new platinums, but thanks to all buses being diverted, I had to head elsewhere.

FYI, it was sadly a fatal accident.

BC 45/47 are using the old 49E terminus at Longbridge, Sunbury Road, as the Bridge over the Railway line and onwards is closed due to flooding earlier today outside Sainsbury's.

YW 49 is diverting via Cofton Hackett I believe to avoid Longbridge but not sure on exact details

Sh4318

For some reason 4902 on the 61 to Birmingham, travelled up and down Islington Row Middleway, stopping at the bus stop opposite Park Regis, any diversions along the Bristol Road?

No idea if it's anything to do with it but I spotted an unidentified omnilink on the 28 going past the church tavern towards Aldridge road yesterday
