Noted on Lichfield Rd (Wednesfield) within the past 20 minutes

5511 running 5 minutes late on the 59. Rarely any late running at this time on a Sunday
1783 running 10-11 minutes late on WA89

1783 is on running board 89-01 which is due to leave Wolverhampton at 20:05 and arrive Walsall at 21:00. It left Wolverhampton at 20:05 and arrived Walsall at 20:58, on the previous journey it left Walsall, 6 Late, and arrived Wolverhampton 6 late at 20:05 to leave on time. So not 11 late

Sorry my watch was set about 5 mins fast. Thanks Tony :)

There are two different sets of three buses that I've seen in the last 15 minutes on the WN59. The WA69 that I'm on is also running a little late.

2's and 11's very late running due to an accident on Cannock Road so all traffic is being diverted down Bushbury Rd then Wednesfield Road causing heavy delays on the 59 too. (Gaps of 20-25 minutes on the 59 at certain points)

Not sure how badly it affected the 9's/141/99, but there was an RTC on the main road just before/enter Halesowen seemed to be quite a large build up of traffic  :)

I don't know if there was a problem with the M6 or somewhere else along the route, but the 28s this afternoon were running late all over the place.

At the Yenton, heading into Erdington, there was 4 in the space of around 3 minutes. I had one trip as overtime, and I was running in a trio heading the other way as well. (I was on time for once!)

Mom said it took her just over two hours to get from New Street to Rednal today - apparently a smash at Weoley Park Road?

Don't get me started with the 28s today.

Tree cutting by the Jaguar on Chester Road meant 3 lanes were down to 1. Plus more at the Fox & Goose, meant we were all running extremely late today. Adjusted twice but still late running, with lots of drivers running special to try and stick to time. On my last trip to Heartlands I finally made it 55 minutes late, then had to run dead all the way to Scott Arms, but was still 30 minutes late getting to the relief point.

I dont know the problem - traffic seemed fine to me - but a convoy of 3 900s into City around 4/4:30 this afternoon. 2 957s together in Hay Mills, then I didnt see another one till Lode Heath which was an E to Yadley, and the one right behind running dead!

probably the fact that the Coventry Road was closed due to a building fire!

I wonder if the fire was caused by the Thunder and Lightning we had around that time.

1752 was running 20 minutes late (Well 19 to be precise) through Wednesfield towards Walsall on WA89. Should have departed the stop in Wednesfield High St at 14:20 but didn't arrive till 14:39/14:40

72 half hour down this afternoon
