Boris's Bus (A Political Journey) Part 30: Yes, A Single Decker Version Can Be Done

At the unveiling of the New Bus mock-up the other week Boris said it was "a style and a brand that we are going to use across of family of London buses," that could be built by various manufacturers (see him doing this on the Telegraph video embedded by Zelo Street ). But what might this "family" comprise? How extended might it be? It gives me enormous pleasure to confirm speculation that a single decker variant on the New Bus is indeed a real possibility. TfL emailed last week to say: We are keen that benefits delivered by new technology, the use of new composite materials and other initiatives from the New Bus for London project are carried across into other designs of buses to be used in London. I asked for more specifics. Practically begged. They've now added: This could include single deckers. You eventually read it here first (I think).
