You might think they're created by the buses physically damaging the trees as they pass, but I suspect they're actually created by crown shyness, where trees naturally limit their growth so as not the clash with the branches of neighbouring trees. In this case, the trees infer the regular movement of the passing buses as an indication that they're getting too close to a neighbouring tree and, as a result, restrict their growth it that direction.
I love the rectangular shapes in the trees along Great Western Road in Glasgow, like the one in the foreground of this photo, which neatly match the profile of the local double-decker buses.

#London has surpassed 2,000 zero-emission #buses, making its fleet the largest in Western #Europe. This marks major progress since 2016, when there were just 30. Now, over one in five of the capital’s iconic red buses are zero-emission, with route 337 the latest to go fully electric. The move is part of the Mayor’s efforts to tackle toxic air, cut carbon emissions and protect public health, aiming for a fully zero-emission fleet by 2030. TfL’s investment has supported 3,000 green jobs across the UK and boosted manufacturing in cities like Ballymena and Falkirk. Zero-emission buses offer smoother, quieter journeys and meet the highest safety standards. London’s Superloop network, better infrastructure, and expanded ULEZ are further reducing emissions. With over 100 zero-emission routes and innovations like pantograph charging trials, TfL is leading the shift to greener, more sustainable transport while supporting economic growth and cleaner air for all Londoners.

#excellent - Fewer #cars is a VERY good thing. #China is not just transitioning its own fleet to #EVs - it is also forcing ALL car manufacturers to slow down in the rest of the world. Make #electric #bikes and #buses instead of cars.

Closed bus doors are overrated.

"The bright yellow Causeway Link (CW) buses that move thousands of people across Johor and Singapore daily are known for the smiley faces plastered on their facade, but their origin story wasn’t quite as cheery."
Northern #Ireland Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins has announced plans to introduce legislation banning overtaking of school #buses stopped to pick up or drop off children. Citing recent tragedies, she stressed the need to protect children during these vulnerable moments. The proposed law aims to enhance road safety and follows a departmental review and public awareness campaigns. While legislation is being prepared, Kimmins urged drivers to slow down, avoid distractions, and be mindful of their responsibilities. Additional measures include enforcing proper use of school bus warning lights, with fixed penalty notices to be introduced by September, and continued roll-out of 20mph zones near schools.

That looks like a British train ticket from the 1960s.
