AFAIK it's a straighforward 17t weight limit


So Bendis can't use Tower Bridge?


How much does a bendi weigh?


About 17t - empty.
ULW is written on the side of all buses.

RMs are about 8t, modern double-deckers about 12t.


Bendies are about 16.5 tonnes so would just get in within the limit as
long as they were nearly empty. I reckon half a tonne of people is about
6 or 7.
