I was on the 484 Wednesday night/ Thursday morning (last bus) coming from work and Ladywell was closed due to resurfacing. I did not know until the driver drove past the junction and I looked to the right.
Route 484 was diverted via Catford and Route 284 back to Ladywell. The bus only lane that turns right towards Catford remained stuck on red. We were waiting there for a bit and the driver decided to safely go through the red light. By the time we reached Brockley, the bus was over 20 minutes late. Quite strange being on the 484 at 1:40am. Usually I take an earlier bus...

Do you mean the right turn from Rushey Green near Lewisham Town Hall? I wonder if buses on the 75 and 185 that normally turn right there have a transponder fitted to active the lights?

No, that traffic light needs to be reported, even in daytime it takes 5 minutes for that traffic light to go green, most of the time drivers get away if there are people crossing the road and press the pedestrial crossing button, at nights yes it's worse you can end up waiting long time but trust me, eventually it goes green, but since the driver was on divertion and light didn't change and it's not his route, I can't blame him as long as he done it safely, and to be honest, that crossing potentially could be trafficlight-less.
That was a nice divertion though.

Widened pavements for social distancing means that part of King Street in Southall is one-way. The section between Western Road and Norwood Road is open in that direction only, so the 120 towards Northolt has to divert via Montague Waye and Western Road, which luckily doesn't miss out any stops .

There are diversion signs for the 91 and N91 at Warren Street so I presume that small patch at Eversholt Street is closed between Euston Bus Station and Euston Road, which is always known to be shut for roadworks.
The 168 and 253 also have diversion signs too at Mornington Crescent down the 214 route to St Pancras
so there must be roadworks at Euston

Some roadworks at Euston Road again, as the 30, 73, 205, 390, N73 and N205 have diversion signs at Warren Street and are directed towards Hampstead Road, so will probably go down Hampstead Road to Mornington Crescent via the 168 and 253.
This will also cause VERY bad traffic on Hampstead Road, which has been cut to 1 lane both directions due to HS2 works.

The reason why 65 and E3 were on diversion earlier.

The 135 was diverted away from Westferry Road and Manchester Road and ran down Marsh Wall instead this afternoon, so omitting all the stops at Barkantine, Mudchute, Island Gardens and Cubitt Town! I was driving along Marsh Wall and saw two 135s (one of each direction) there, but the D7 seems to be working fine at that time. Not sure the reason about the diversion.

Think 277 and D7 were also on diversion in the morning. It was sadly due to a stabbing of a 17 year old 😰thankfully the person is alive Cars were sent down Stratford street bypassing the Barkantine but clearly that road is too narrow for buses

Find this annoying as a local resident of IoD... I’m local too and It’s my GP as well plus have got loads of friends living within a 5 min walk - so very annoying. I had also walked past the acid attack Scene outside the George some 20 min after it had happened while on my way to Asda some months / years back ....
