Can't turn right from Bearwood Road to Hagley Road. Can turn right from Bearwood Road to Hagley Road West, however.
About 11.15am today there was an 80A 'Dudley Road Summerfield Park' unloading at that stop from West Bromwich direction.

Single Decker WB89 showing Smethwick Blue Gates 89E at around 18.30 last night. I saw it as I was coming back from West Brom.
Watching the 24's go driving by...

I noticed once again yesterday people confused when the bus reached it's amended destination. So I thought would it not help if there was more information on the display? Like Weoley Castle Square instead of Weoley Castle or University Station instead of University. Or would it make no difference as peope don't pay enough attention anyway  ::)

OH25

80E to Smethwick, West Cross
followed by an 80E to Cape Hill

A seemingly pointless 5E to Sparkbrook, heading out of city around 5:50pm, spotted on Stratford Road in Sparkbrook. Presumably this would have finished down by Aldi, at least it might have helped carried some passengers only going that far from the city centre.

On a side note, it seems the -E suffix is being restored, alongside the 'Part Route' message, which I think helps with clarity, certainly for those who pay attention to the displays. Not long after was a 6 to Robin Hood Island, which just showed 'Thankyou100' instead of Part Route.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath
