The wide open space of the junction has since been filled with a large roundabout. Bournemouth Corporation trolleybus 282 is turning into Charminster Road on its way to Bournemouth Square on service 29. It is one of the Sunbeam MF2B type, with Weymann bodywork with which Bournemouth virtually renewed its trolleybus fleet in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Despite this investment, a change in policy resulted in the system closing in 1969. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=2114547&displayclass=slide
