Since double-decker buses aren't the easiest things
to turn around, except at authorised turnarounds


Mark Brader:
They aren't? Wouldn't it just be a matter of going
"around the block" via suitable side streets?


John Rowland:
Yes, but most side streets and corners here aren't suitable. ...


In what way?


The 91 is the last bus that should be turning other than at an
authorised turn. About a year ago a 91 turning at the Crouch End
terminus demolished a shop as it negotiated the roundabout.
