Diversions

[Westy]

Diversion for Wednesfield Road buses in Wolves. From Twitter.

"DIVERSION: Due to Police incident at the bridge on Wednesfield Road, Heath Town. Police have currently closed the road in both directions.

Services 59,60,69 and Walsall 89 will divert via Willenhall Road and Deans Road in both directions."

2 things.

Firstly, spot the mistake. (There might be 2?)

Secondly, sister, as she is working overnight tonight, is debating whether to catch the 2040 60 from Bloxwich, rather than the 2140, so she can get into work on time for 2200 in Wednesfield!
(I guess, she's having a taxi or the sis in law is picking her up instead tomorrow!)

1.) 69 doesn't operate at night
2.) Typo including the 89

Unless it got stuck at the bridge, the 60 won't really be delayed, if at all.

Pedestrian threatening to jump off bridge, so may take some time

Sister probably wouldn't agree with you, but she's in work now(Caught the 2040) & probably now just as aware of the situation as Tony is.

Back to normal now, according to Twitter.

For about 15 minutes, all Perry Barr services were having to use Trinity Road, the 7 route down Witton Road, Aston Lane and Wellhead Lane, As the Underpass was briefly closed as well as the Island.

Come off my 907 at 5.14. Walked in the garage and stayed there 15 mins. Still passed a 937 Trident by Tesco at Witton a good time after the underpass reopened so shows how long buses were taking to get down Witton Road

I am trying to follow the diversions due to fire at Perry Barr on the A-Z but NXWM Twitter diversions do not make sense:

At the start all services bar the 11 was using the underpass and skipping out one stop. 51 and 52 doing the X51 route over the flyover. 33 and 907 doing what 934s do. Then as I said above for that short time when the underpass was closed, then back to these when the underpass reopened

It will be even more fun when that flyover is demolished.

John,

Many thanks, that makes sense now.
