| Yes, the replacement of gas mains most definitely does need to be done! Those of us who have lived here for a while will recall vividly the mayhem caused by the gas explosion in Manor Fields in the 1980s. On Friday, I saw an empty 337, bearing a "Putney Carlton Drive" destination board, drive west along the URR as far as the High Street intersection; turn left up the Hill; turn left again into St Johns Avenue [not easy; then a succession of humps to negotiate]; presumably left again into Carlton Drive; then presumably right again into the URR, back towards Wandsworth. I suspect a proving trial, or route learning. Most welcome if it is, as it will ensure no reduction in the number of buses coming to Putney from the east |
