222E (827) to Russell's Hall Estate via Eve Hill @4:00 in Dudley Bus Station

Probably due to the horrendous gridlock in the city centre this afternoon caused by the closure of Park Street, but a 94E to Arran Way was seen at about 2.30.

There was a 243E to cradley heath behind me in Dudley at around 12:30 earlier

Saw a 51E to Aston 6 Ways at Scott Arms around 11am this morning. Also there were 2 X51's together and another 51 all heading towards Birmingham, I guess these were caused by the Park St Closure

Wonder how the 94E work now with the new route to turn round as they used to turn right from green lane down Windward way or is the island big enough for the buses to turn on Auckland Drive?? Just curious.

I am surprised that you saw an 80E to grove lane because the 80 doesn't go anywhere near Grove Lane!

That's exactly what I thought, the only thing that was correct is that it said 80E to Summerfield Park on the side

I would turn right onto Arran Way (the 966 route), left at the end and go all round Auckland Drive and restart service at Arran Way. Or continue along Auckland Drive to the A452 island and turn round there. It is only a mini roundabout so not big enough to turn the bus around

Wasted mileage there, might as well terminate them at them at Bacons End. A bit of a waste just like the 72e's at castle Brom.
