Mandela Way closes
It's now looking desolate and devoid of ownership. What will become of it? He asks melodramatically.
I'm not sure of the exact history of MW, but I believe it was opened around the same time London General gained the 453 from Stagecoach Selkent. I think there was also another Mandela Way garage run by East Thames Buses, which I believe may be the site next door, which houses a DPD depot and TfL's Dial-a-Ride service.
This looks to be quite a small site, perhaps only slighter bigger than the garage at Waterloo.
I always liked having a peak through the gate while walking through, and seeing the tops of buses resting from the back on Willow Walk. The driver changeover point for the no. 1 was at Grange Road, and the driver's would often walk through the nearby estate, and gather on a bench behind the bus stop, and banter with one another in that slightly unprofessional but friendly manner befitting of bus drivers.
