Flash message not working in laravel 5.2

I'm trying to get flash messaging to work in Laravel 5.2. Everything seems to be correct but when I go to /alert nothing happens. Any suggestions?

The following is my routes.php..

  Route::group(['middleware' => ['web']], function(){
  Route::get('/', [
    'uses' => 'HomeController@index',
    'as' => 'welcome',
    ]);

  Route::get('/alert', function()
  {
    return redirect()->route('welcome')->with('info', 'You have signed up!');
  });
});

The following is my alerts.blade.php...

 @if (Session::has('info'))
<div class="alert">
     {{ Session::get('info') }}
</div>
@endif

The following is my master.blade.php..

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
   <title>@yield('title')</title>
   <link rel="stylesheet"              href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-1q8mTJOASx8j1Au+a5WDVnPi2lkFfwwEAa8hDDdjZlpLegxhjVME1fgjWPGmkzs7" crossorigin="anonymous">

</head>

<body>
   @include('includes.header')
   <div class="container">
     @yield('content')
     @include('includes.alerts')
    </div>
 </body>
</html>

You should try to use as the documentation suggest instead of using the facade \Session

From documentation:

Of course, after the user is redirected to a new page, you may retrieve and display the flashed message from the session. For example, using Blade syntax:

@if (session('info'))
<div class="alert">
    {{ session('info') }}
</div>
@endif

Your code work fine on my laravel 5.2 using the syntax above.

EDIT:

they use return redirect('dashboard')->with('status', 'Profile updated!');

they don't use the method redirect()->route()

try to use this instead:

Route::get('/alert', function(\Illuminate\Http\Request $request)
{
    $request->session()->flash('info', 'You have signed up!');
    return redirect()->route('welcome');
});
