My road not on route so had no notice it was going to be closed ,grass verges all ruined at the moment got an asda 40ft trailer stuck on grass verge after totally ignoring road closed sign. Are the council going to put things right out of their profit doubt it cant even get bins emptied .

This is on my road, been a nightmare all day
, had a christening in Sheldon so had no choice but to go out, took 90 minutes to get home via Smethwick, Bearwood and Halesowen due to the whole of Bartley Green benign cut off.
Had cars dumped outside my house, the lorry stuck on the verge next door and had to listen to arguments for most of the day. It's been quite funny watching people complain when they have drove past 2 "road closed" signs and then have to turn around outside my house.
Spoke to some of the stewards who have come up from South Wales and then say they have never worked a more badly organised event before, 100 miles of road closures with not a single diversion route set up. Not great planning really.....
