Imagine this is causing delays! Sported a 473 that had run short to Prince Regent from North Woolwich earlier.
PRINCE REGENT LANE, E13: Routes 147 262 276 300 473 are on diversion southbound due to works. Routes 147 262 300 473 towards Canning Town are missing the stops from Beaumont Road to Newham University Hospital / New Vic College. Route 276 towards Newham Hospital is missing the stops from Beaumont Road to Newham University Hospital Main Reception.
Buses are running via Barking Road then assume via 376 to Newham Hospital.
I was wondering why Prince Regent Lane was full of "Bus stop closed" signs on my way home tonight. Would have certainly been great fun to do that diversion!

Huge diversions today for routes 29, 46, 253 and 274. Bridge works at Camden Road have all the bus routes on a lengthy diversion and as this diversion is so rare im unclear on how some of them are running via.
Towards Mornington Crescent routes 29, 253 are diverted via Caledonian Road from Holloway to King’s Cross via the 17/91/259 then divert to Mornington Crescent via the 214. The 274s diversion is the same but starts from Caledonian Road and ends at Arlington Road.
Have to say seeing a 29 at King’s Cross is not the most occassional and the 253s diversion is very circuitious and bound to see some curtailments because it should have just been curtailed, the 168 is enough past 8pm
Unclear on the diversion towards Holloway but buses are diverted via Chalk Farm Road from diversion signs and im sure the 393 routing is too tight for a DD so no idea.
46 diversion I have no idea but is running via Camden Town Station bothways like the 214 which I think is the diversion

"CAMDEN ROAD / ROYAL COLLEGE STREET: Routes 29 46 253 274 N29 N253 N279 diverted during Network Rail bridge maintenance.
Routes 29 253 N29 N253 N279 toward Holloway Road via Chalk Farm Road, Prince of Wales Road, Kentish Town Road and Royal College Street and toward Camden via York Way, Goods Way, Pancras Road and Crowndale Road.
Route 46 diverted toward Lancaster Gate, only, via Crowndale Road and Camden High Street.
Route 274 toward Islington Angel via Greenland Street, Bayham Street, Pratt Street, Camden High Street, Chalk Farm Road, Prince of Wales , Kentish Town Road and Royal College Street and toward Camden via Saint Pancras Way, Crowndale Road and Camden High Street."
Doesn't quite match with what you've seen, so perhaps things have changed in practice (or some drivers are getting lost).
Interesting that the official diversion takes DDs under the arched bridge at Kentish Town West in the eastbound direction, which was discussed in another thread recently. I guess the usual measures have been taken (i.e. cones in the road to stop buses getting too close to the bridge wall).

Almost the same but the diversions have been mixed up in my head the 29/253s are following the 274 to Goods Yard and then to St Pancras back down to Crowndale Road again and the 46 is diverted towards Lancaster Gate only. This makes it a little less circuitious as I thought which is good

Routes 88 and 274 are on diversion between Camden Town and Great Portland Street/London Central Mosque
Route 88 is diverted from Camden via Mornington Crescent, Hampstead Road and Warren Street LOR to Great Portland Street
Route 274 is diverted from Camden via Mornington Crescent, Hampstead Road, Warren Street, Great Portland Street, Albany Street LOR to ZSL London Zoo. (Its beyond me why the 274 is doing a circuitious diversion around London Zoo instead of going along Marylebone Road from Great Portland Street to Baker Street)

I don't know the detail at the southern end but it appears from diversion signs that the X26 is following the R70 route between Hampton Hill and Hanwoth and the 111 routing to Harlington Road where it retains line of route. If it still serves Teddington it must go via Hampton Hill High Street. Presumably this is to avoid possible delays at Alex Corner did to road works on the A316 (although the 285 seems to manage) but any savings made must surely be more than lost by the lengthy diversion.

Presumably they have done this because the X26 is also experiencing heavy delays of up to an hour in peaks in Worcester Park as there are emergency roadworks near the station. Unlike in Teddington there isn’t really a way around them in Worcester Park so they will have to make up time somewhere else.

Pratt Street is also closed aswell as Arlington Road so the 88/274 are still on diversion and the 31 is on diversion between Bayham Street and Camden Town via Mornington Crescent but doesnt affect any stops

The 14 and 22 were last night reported on diversion via Wandsworth and Wandsworth Bridge due to the closure of Putney Bridge. Other routes were diverted or curtailed accordingly.

I encountered a 315 in Clapham Common, wonder if that had something to do with the crane operation in Balham.

The 319¹ was last night diverted via Upper Tooting Road, Garrate Lane and Burntwood Lane due to roadworks along Trinity Road.
¹ - and 219 accordingly
