For the past few days. Hawbush Road in Brierley Hill has been closed due to gas mains meaning that Diamond have been running along a route that was (in the late 90s/early 00s) a section of route ran by Midland Red West's 234 (Dudley - Merry Hill - Stourbridge) and then subsequently ran by a 3 day per week service 229 (Brierley Hill - Hawbush circular) c.2005 by Travel West Midlands.

Having had this afternoon off work, I decided to have a little stroll with the dog to see the diverts.
