The 31 is being rerouted to serve Solihull Station. Not sure if already mentioned.

To Solihull, it'll turn into the Station, from Streetsbrook Road, and terminate in the Town Centre. And then out of the Town Centre, it'll pass through the Station again, and then continue on Streetsbrook to it's normal line of route.

A board of all the Solihull changes are in the garage, and this was one of the ones mentioned. From 15th Nov.

I'm surprised that wasn't done a long time ago, good change though

Shouldn't the 50A/C be a new registration, not a variation?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

I thought the changes to the 29 were to amend to follow current 29A between Weoley Castle and Northfield, and possible withdrawal of the Northfield to Frankley section. That's what's been previously suggested on here anyway. Are they changing the city centre route too?

Still no advertisement online of a lot of these changes it seems. Could be a lot of people waking up on the 16th to a surprise/not their usual service!

@s94 exactly my thoughts, it's not as though they are just a few small timetable changes!

And this is becoming worryingly regular.
We know that there changes coming through bits of inside information and people who know where to look, but the general public who use the buses day in day out are as yet clueless.
Pathetic.

It's all going to end badly I fear!  ???

Have any bus stop flags been updated yet? It's bad enough that there has been a lack of publicity so far, this really will be leaving it to the last minute, if passengers are unable to plan their future journeys in advance of the changes.
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

It would be surprising if the city centre route was changed to differ to the other Harborne routes. Combined they provide a 7/8 minute frequency in the evenings and on Sunday, changing the 29 would mess that up.

Perhaps the route of all the Harborne services is changing!

It is both inbound and outbound
