I READ in the EA (April 17) that trials for longer Thamesdown buses will continue.

I have found that most drivers cannot negotiate a corner without going on the pavement. If you are standing by a bus stop it is best to stand a few feet back or you will be decapitated by the wing mirrors.

As for longer buses, this will mean fewer shelters (demolished).

The only solution I can see, is to have a bus lane on the pavements.
