Bridge Street, Walsall is closed due to unsafe building, all buses using Bridge Street to enter/exit Walsall seem to be using Lower Rushall Street to the Ring Road and in via Lichfield Street

That's the explanation then I thought it was more serious due to the amount of police an police tape

Aston Lane, Witton is shut this morning due to part of the roof blowing off from Tesco. 11A/C seem to be using Witton Road upto Six Ways, and then down the A34 to Perry Barr,

Plus Perry Barr buses can not run dead to/from garage down Witton Road also

Tesco's roof coming off apparently!

11s are coming over the overpasses now, so I don't know which way they are going now!

654 is using Trinity Lane coming from/to Aston, then down the A34 to One Stop

The 11A was diverted away from Bearwood Rd yesterday, I saw two turning right from Meadow Road onto Hagley Road to get back to the Kings Head. A tricky turn in the morning rush hour.

All the rest (Harbornes, 9, 83, 89, 120, 140, 141 etc are doing a U turn at the bottom of Snow Hill and using Livery Street to Colmore Row

The Birmingham Road in Wylde Green was shut at night on weekends some time late 2013. This mean' the 902/4/5, 115 and 110 had to be diverted. I was on a 905 that went past Chester Road Station then followed the 66AA route to Jockey Road. I got off at Jockey Road although it isn't a 905 stop then I think the 905 turned right and followed Jockey road back onto it's normal route into Sutton Coldfield.

Just noticed,  as coming down Bloxwich Lane in Reedswood, that Bentley Lane is shut.  What is the diversion for the 40 / 41?

Better than previous years, not too much excess late running

How are Birmingham buses coping today with diversions?

I discussed about the former bus route 26 (now 72) with a mate. We mentioned about remembering the 26 being diverted via Heartlands Parkway, effectively skipping half of the route, however we weren't too sure about that. Does anyone know if it has actually happened or not?
