Hagley Road services gone right down the drain this evening.

Things seemed to have improved by the time I travelled home this evening, the X10 I caught from Bearwood was only six minutes late by the time it arrived in the city centre. There was still a little bit of flooding in the Five Ways underpass, this was a little before 9pm.
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

Pershore Road services completely abandoned with boats sent to rescue passengers on stranded buses (yes - seriously)

Harborne buses abandoned on Harborne Road due to a large sinkhole appearing!

Picture of Pershore Road boat rescue:

Where abouts on the Pershore Road was this?

They usually have drivers on spare to avoid this.

High oak causing cahos.... Again!

14:59 28 from Hassop Road to Scott Arms, never turned up. I do wonder why some poor people rely on this joke of a service.
