Disaster was narrowly avoided this morning when a double-decker dramatically smashed into a bus stop in Tottenham.

Miraculously no one was injured in the crash on Broad Lane shortly after 11am but the incident left carnage at the scene with the bus shelter apparently completely destroyed.

Transport for London said the crash happened westbound on the major north London street, near the junction with Antill Road.

TfL Traffic News tweeted: "A10 Broad Lane westbound at Antill Road - The collision on Broad Lane is causing delays. Traffic is very slow with tailbacks to Ferry Lane."

Scotland Yard said the crash was not serious, with no injuries save for the bus driver who was being checked over "as a precaution".

TfL said it would investigate the incident.

Ken Davidson, head of bus operations, said: "At around 11am today there was a collision between a route 41 bus and a bus shelter on Broad Lane at the junction with Antill Road, N15.

"The emergency services attended the scene. There will be a full investigation into this incident.”
