It hasn't been abandoned. There's a driver with it. It is 4572 which is now at the 10 terminus

Road closure at bottom of Westbourne Road (Edgbaston) - affecting outbound services only

Not too far behind a 24 in service - heading along Augustus Road. Presumably from there, the diversion route is a left onto Norfolk Road, then a left on Westfield Road, then right onto Harborne Road and back on normal line of route.

Though it may look tight, I've seen it done before on two occasions - albeit in use in the opposite direction. Both instances were results of RTCs.

Fatal RTC at the junction of Coalway Rd last night.

Was there an issue in Bloxwich earlier?

Overheard the radio on the x51 giving the driver instructions on a diversion via Lower Farm rather than Stafford Road!

Good job it was on that section.

Any further up past the boundary would've been a longer diversion!

This morning the 23 ran straight down woodgate lane / Adams Hill instead of going up wood lane by the X22 terminus, what happened?
23 - Bartley Green
76 - Northfield
X20 - Birmingham Via Longbridge, Northfield & QE Hospital / University

The 14 is currently being diverted along the Washwood Heath Road in both directions.
I saw one use the full length of the Washwood Heath Road from Fox and Goose to Saltley. I then saw another divert along the Washwood Heath Road from Fox and Goose and then turn down Highfield Road.
