New OPO Route

 

T613 has been turned at East Ham by a mobile Point Inspector and has been backed into Tennyson Avenue off The High Street.
 
The situation was not uncommon. The narrow roads between East Ham and Ilford were often blocked, this morning being no exception. There was an impasse on Gladstone Avenue due to badly  parked cars and two of the allocation of the D2 were stuck firmly. T613, as U101, would have become the third had it not been for a fourth being available to detour via the main roads to get the busload of passengers away from this unsociable disease affecting so many London bus routes.
