Gower Street gridlock

Number 24 bus

The 24 five minutes behind the one in front

The 24 ten minutes behind the one at the front

The 24 fifteen minutes behind the one at the front. etc

Yawn!

How does my hair look, dharling? :P

shame the bendy 29 didn't get crushed :(

Some wise nut has shut a lane off between Gt Russell St and New Oxford St. The result here is 40 buses nose to tail.

It's the one at the front pulling them all that I feel sorry for.

I was on a bus that hit the queue. I knew better than to stay on, walked down to Aldwych in the end.

I once cycled past a similar queue of buses in Princes Street in Edinburgh. When I got to the front, there was a broken-down double-decker, with about a dozen drivers trying to push it out of the way.

I can easily believe that with Princes Street, just about every bus route in the city must run along it.

Hello,

I used this shot for a story on Londonist.com about a proposed new express bus service:
