Part of the duties of Centrecomm, the Transport for London bus Control
Centre, involve coordinating bus operations and liaison with the
emergency services and local authorities in any major incident in the
Capital. There are very comprehensive emergency procedures under which
service buses can be commandeered for removal of casualties and for the
transport of persons involved in the aftermath. Centrecomm is at the
heart of these activities.


I've never heard of them before. Do they have a bunker? Please tell me
they have a bunker.

Hardly. Centrecomm is part of London Buses and is based at Company
HQ.
