English: Countryliner DP19 (W364 ABD), a Dennis Dart SLF/Plaxton Pointer MPD, in Guildford Road, Woking, Surrey, on route 437. Route 437 turns left out of Heathside Road into Guildford Road, and uses the turn around the end of the one way system to turn back on itself and head along Guildford Road into Woking town centre. However, the roadworks to replace the gas pipes had reduced the width of the road, meaning there was not enough room for large vehicles to swing around properly. As seen in this photo, File:Woking Guildford Road gas roadworks August 2009 2.JPG, a "no entry for buses and HGVs" sign was put up, with a diversion set up to send large vehicles all the way down to the roundabout at the end of Egley Road/Guildford Road, and back up again. This rather lengthy diversion took too long for buses in service, and with a seeming lack of communication, buses on route 437 were taking all sorts of measures to avoid the turn. I saw one turn left out of Heathside Road, and then turn around using Mount Hermon Road, Montgomery Road and York Road, back onto Guildford Road facing the right way. I saw another go into York Road and squeeze around the mini roundabout there, to get back onto Guildford Road, and I saw one run directly from Heathside Crescent into Station Approach, and use the bigger, main turn around Blockbusters, which was free of roadworks and able to be used. Unfortunately this missed out the rather important bus stop outside the Community Hospital. As you may have guessed by now, the bus seen in the photo did none of the above options, and instead decided to ignore all the signs and try and squeeze around, ending up at a rather precarious angle on the sloped edge of the flower beds! The bus did actually go steeper than this but I didn't have the camera out in time unfortunately.
