Bus turning circle, Pendeford
Image: © Richard Vince Taken: 4 Jun 2013
This large turning circle, located close to Pendeford's district centre (out of frame to the right), was constructed for the extension of bus services to the estate in the early 1980s. For many years, Pendeford was served by circular services that called in to the turning circle without terminating. However, route 4 (from Springhill via Wolverhampton city centre and Rakegate) now terminates here, while buses on route 6 do a short double run here from the Droveway on their way between the city centre and Wobaston. In this picture, a 4 is laying over (left) while a 6 passes around it.
