MAJOR LEAK Burst Water Main Floods Caledonian Road N1 – Major Bus 274 and Routes 17, 91, 259 Rerouted, Avoid Area Now

Peter Norman

Update 3pm: Chaos on Caledonian Road has forced a U-turn on bus route 274 diversions. Emergency crews are still battling flooding, so commuters are warned to avoid the area at all costs.

Bus Route 274 Hit by Changing Diversions

At 2:50pm, officials scrapped earlier tweaks to bus 274’s route after the flooding worsened. This came just 20 minutes after the cordon around the burst water main was extended, piling on the commuter misery.

Bus 274 southbound: Now rerouted from Agar Grove via York Way, Wharfdale Road, Caledonian Road, Pentonville Road, and City Road, before rejoining the London Outer Ring (LOR) in both directions.

Water Main Burst Sparks Mass Bus Disruptions

The water main blew at 1:56pm, blocking Caledonian Road both ways. Bus routes 17, 91, 259, 274, and night bus N91 have all taken big hits:

Southbound 17, 91, N91, 259: Detoured from Caledonian Road at Market Road, right onto Market Road, left on York Way, then left onto Wharfdale Road, right back onto Caledonian Road to the LOR.
Northbound 17, 91, N91, 259: Rerouted from York Way at Wharfdale Road, continuing along York Way, right into Market Road, then left onto Caledonian Road to LOR.

TWO TIER JUSTICE # Danny Tommo refused bail and remanded in custody after denying Channel boat charges Anti-migration activist Daniel Thomas, known as Danny Tommo, has been refused bail and remanded in custody after pleading not guilty to charges arising from an incident involving a boat in the English Channel. The 37-year-old appeared at Basingstoke Magistrates’ Court on Friday and denied one count of criminal damage and a separate offence under Section 53 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 relating to an alleged failure to disclose the PIN to his mobile phone. Thomas had applied for bail, but the court refused the application and ordered that he remain in custody. He is now due to appear at Portsmouth Crown Court on Tuesday, September 29. The criminal damage allegation relates to an incident in the Channel on Tuesday, September 22. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary said the charge followed an allegation that a boat was damaged while an emergency responder was on board. During Friday’s hearing, prosecutors alleged Thomas used a knife to damage the vessel. Thomas has pleaded not guilty and the allegation has not been proved. He also denies the RIPA offence concerning his phone PIN. Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, known as Tommy Robinson, attended court in support of Thomas, following a demonstration involving several hundred people outside Hampshire Constabulary’s Police Investigation Centre in Basingstoke on Thursday evening. Claims circulating on social media say Thomas’s legal team proposed a package of bail conditions including electronic monitoring, restrictions preventing him from approaching the coast and restrictions on social-media use. Those specific proposed conditions have not yet been confirmed in the published court reports reviewed by UKNIP. Thomas remains in custody pending his next appearance. Proceedings are active and Thomas is entitled to a fair trial. He has pleaded not guilty and the allegat
