Dowson Road from a Double-Deck Bus


Dowson Road was built in the 1930s to bypass Gee Cross and was named after Henry Enfield Dowson.

This section, viewed from the upper deck of a double-deck bus, is heading down into Hyde from just past Knott Lane. You can see another double-decker coming in the opposite direction.

The road was resurfaced in November 2009 when I showed you a view of the roadworks from the lower deck of a bus.

Two more views of Dowson Road from the upper deck can be seen on Hyde DP Xtra.

More D posts can be found via ABC Wednesday.

Things always look more interesting from the top of a double decker bus. I loved sightseeing from one in New York City.

I have never ridden in a double decker bus, I bet you can see a lot from up there. Great choice for D Day.

This has such a pleasant feel to it.

Seems to me such a typical English street scene. I lived in a house like one of those for a while.
