Buses on Diversion
A 134 waits to turn into Fortis Green from the High Road in East Finchley. The 134 and 43 routes were temporarily diverted due to a burst watermain on Muswell Hill. Behind are another 134, 2 43's and a 263 on its normal route to Barnet Hospital.

Fortis Green
Not a car in sight and only one other person to share the quiet of the morning - 04:54 and the sun not due to rise for another 50 minutes. Actually, it wasn't quiet - the dawn chorus was in full swing!

The High Road
Early morning traffic queues on the A1000 at the junction with Fortis Green. Overnight rain has left the road surface wet. On the right is one of the continental style advertising hoardings, illuminated at this time of the day.

They're at it again.
No sooner have the gas contractors finished their work than the water contractors dig up the road. And...No sooner have they finished than the gas contractors are back again! Temporary traffic control at the junction of East End Road and High Road. Fortis Green is opposite.

102 to Chingford
AEC Regent bus on the 102 route turns onto Fortis Green Road. It must have been a warm evening, the front windows are wound right down. Entering service in 1938, the last buses of this type were retired from passenger service by London Transport in 1979. In the background is the Bald Faced Stag public house.

Fortis Green
Looking towards the junction with the A1000, High Road, at East Finchley. The 134 bus on the right is a stranger to these parts, being on diversion due to a burst watermain on Muswell Hill. The bus in the queue of traffic in the centre is a 43, also on diversion. It was a very cold night and the roofs of the shops and the Bald Faced Stag pub, across the junction in the centre of the photo, are white with frost.
