Hagley Road and Harborne services totally shafted tonight. Waited nearly 35 mins for a 23 (three in a row), numerous 9s, 13s, 126s and X10s all bunched. Not seen things that bad in ages.

I caught an x8 38 minutes late. Vehicles started to get stuck with the snow heading up Quinton hill. Was standstill for 20+ minutes

X22s In fine form tonight. 3 due within the space of 12 mins

15:03 11A from Mezza no show.. absolute joke
Arrived 15 mins late, bus 2114, and this what a great replacement for the 81...

Looks as though the 15:33 11 is also going to be late.

Seems to run on time other times of the week, you do have to take into consideration the castle hill roadworks have start so delays are to be expected

To be fair when I passed through there everything was moving fine, it was upon entering Merry Hill they were clogged up in traffic!
A lady was saying that it's not the first time this has happened as she waited for the 11A and came 15 minutes late. I do think it runs better than the 4M though, even though the 11/11A do get caught up in a few hotspots not as bad as what the 4M can be.

Washwood Heath Road between Saltley and Ward End, is at a standstill tonight. Got on YX17NYY on the 55 at 17:05 at Priory Queensway and didn't get to Ward End till 18:00. Was operating unload only by the time i'd got off. The one infront - 1800 looked very overcrowded as well.
Worst I've seen it in a long time.

Saw 1799 at the Fox and Goose with 7514 following directly behind it going towards the City Centre about an hour ago. Unusual to see 2 running together at present. 1799 must have been 10 minutes late and it looked busy as well.

There's something going on at the roundabout at the bottom of the hill, every 55 is losing 5 minutes between Stechford Road and Fox & Goose
