Birmingham by Bus - NXWM Route X22 from City Centre to Bartley Green

Take a relaxing front-row seat on this National Express West Midlands (NXWM) bus journey from Birmingham City Centre to Bartley Green, captured on a beautifully fresh green day just after rainfall 🌧️🌿 Route - X22 Operator - National Express West Midlands Source - The Square Peg Destination - Bartley Green War Memorial NOTE: The first 2 minutes from Square Peg to Moor St Queensway had to be re-shot later in the evening as the original file got slightly corrupted, hence the obvious change of lighting and weather. It was not raining when the original video recording started, but a cloud broke right as the bus approached Bartley Green. Apologies, if that interrupts the viewer's experience. This full ride follows one of Birmingham’s most scenic urban-to-suburban corridors, where the city slowly gives way to open spaces, tree-lined roads, parks, and classic West Midlands neighbourhoods. The recent showers leave everything looking vibrant and alive — deep greens, reflective roads, soft skies, and that unmistakable calm that follows rain. Starting in the heart of Birmingham City Centre, you’ll see busy streets, shops, traffic, and city movement before the atmosphere gradually changes. As the bus heads south-west, the visuals shift into quieter residential areas, leafy avenues, and stretches of greenery that often surprise people who don’t expect Birmingham to be this green. This journey showcases: • A real-time NXWM bus ride with natural ambient sound • Authentic UK public transport experience • Calm post-rain visuals and reflections • Birmingham’s lesser-seen green side • A smooth transition from urban core to suburban calm The NXWM route serving Bartley Green is popular with commuters, students, and locals, but it’s also perfect for anyone who enjoys slow travel, bus spotting, virtual rides, or simply watching the world pass by from a window seat.
