The incident happened on Brettell Lane in Brierley Hill just after 11am this morning. Passengers were evacuated from the double decker bus as a precaution.
Crews from Brierley Hill fire station and Travel West Midlands attended. West Midlands Fire Service spokesperson, Matt Smith, said:

The road was cleared just after midday.
