A new bus-only road has been constructed underneath the Bow flyover to
let buses get from the south side of Stratford High Street to the north
side without having to go around the roundabout. Signs warn against
using it in double deckers. I can't work out why they built it, or why
they made it bus-only.

Anything to do with the buses being used for Olympics site traffic? A
quick way of turning them round?

I didn't even think of the Olympics! Maybe it was installed not for the
building site but for the games.
