Diversions

[ellspurs]

Someone didn't get the memo this morning! After getting off the 2 by the job centre to walk the rest of the way to work, I came across 4387 parked up at the stops by Aldi, being assisted by an inspector to turn into Palmerston Road and reverse back out. Bet that was a bit embarrassing for the driver!

The amount of times I've just gone into auto mode and forgot about any deviations this week...

The first exit on the A452 Collector Road is currently closed due to them doing something with the lights. I've made the "trip of shame" up to the second junction so many times now, as I only remember it is closed after I've joined the road at the top.

Gonna be plenty of diversions today.

Snow is coming down quite heavily in North Solihull, and it is scheduled for the rest of the day.

They keep putting X22 Birmingham to Rednal for some reason. Its Birmingham to Woodgate via University & QE Hospital.

9 and X10 using Quinton expressway. That's a blast from the past. Didn't the 19 (Hasbury to Birmingham) last service to use that stretch?

There are lots of 'typos' and errors on that page, thankfully we get the basic gist of it.

Snow is expected to continue to fall for the next few hours so basically if you don't need to travel by bus, don't travel by bus!

... essentially an electronic copy and paste, as information isn't being looked over before posting.

For instance, this is the current info for the 54:

"54 | Hamstead Village to Perry Barr One Stop is avoiding Hamsted Highstyreet"

on both NXWM and TfWM. It's fabulous.

Looks like YW 18 is still terminating at Bangham Pit but where exactly do the buses turn, is it at the triangle leading down to Moors Lane (the last time that happened to me, the dot matrix displayed Ley Hill!) or do they contine down Genners Lane and terminate at Newman?

Sorry @bususer28 I don't know as I don't live in Birmingham... I don't know if @Dom or @Tony will know?
