Expressway was at a standstill, even with 4 lanes into City. Took 20 minutes earlier just to get over Dartmouth Circus

I came off 40 odd minutes late for my first portion. Phoned and they said get to outer terminus and have break there. I've had to bring the bus back to garage to use the loo, as I don't finish till 10 tonight

When on 6722, i saw 4278, 1907/33 all doing 52 with 4283 doing a 52A. 1907 went out of service at One Stop. 4800 on the 33 had to unload at the 54 Stop at One Stop because of buses being all over the place.

Saw 4799 on the 33 being diverted; going into city via Snow Hill Queensway etc...

Aston University moving-in day, as opposed to an Open Day. But yeah, the point still stands.

It was shocking, the buses were that rammed they had to just carry on pass people at the stops. Haven't seen anything this bad on the Birchfield buses for a while. I doubt the 907 was going good either.

When I was on 6722 at Tower Hill, three 51s came within seconds of each other towards Walsall, 1933/4278/4283 were following each other down Beeches Road.

[Kevin]

7025 arrived into city at the same time as 7022 on the 66, 10:10 today
Was assuming / dreading 7025 running dead to Star City to recover as they were so close, but no he stayed in service and I'll be on time to work yippee

[Trident 4194]

9s are running very late. 6113 on a 9E to Portland Road

[John]

The two late night 67s are running together tonight. Combination of Expressway closure, Villa traffic and roadworks
