Waiting for a bus can be a little tedious at times.

But a new bus stop made entirely out of Lego could put the fun back into the daily commute.

The model, which was built by toy store Hamley's outside its Regent Street store with more than 100,000 bricks, is currently being used as a real stop for nine routes.

It was created to mark Transport for London (TfL) Year of the Bus, which celebrates 100 years since London buses were sent to the Western Front in WW1, as well as the 60th anniversary of the Routemaster.

A TfL spokesman said the Lego stop, which is due to be taken down on July 15, could be retained in the long-term if it is not "tampered" with.

Curious passers-by have been exploring the creative invention and sharing photos of it on social media.

This Sunday the celebrations will continue at the Regent Street Bus Calvacade, which features 50 buses dating back to the 1820s.

A Lego spokesperson said: "We hope visitors to Regent Street enjoy this fantastic build, it truly shows that with Lego you can build anything!"

Leon Daniels, TfL’s Managing Director of Surface Transport, said: “We are delighted to team up with Lego and Trueform to offer our passengers a bit of fun on their journey.

"Many thousands of people pass along Regent Street each day and we hope the new shelter will bring a smile to the face of even a hardened commuter.”
