Was that a 102, because it travelled via Brenzett and not Camber? Looks like it could have been diverted to avoid the gridlock at Camber Sands.( traffic tailing all the way back to Rye)

Back in the 80s, I worked out of Hastings & District's Rye Depot (now long gone) and drove this route often. I loved it and watching this brought back some great memories. I'm glad I found this post. In case anyone is wondering what was going on with all the congestion approaching Rye, this is a common occurrence in the summer caused by the vast numbers of day-trippers trying to get to Camber Sands. It can play the very devil with bus timetables.

Brings back memories of when I worked on the Dover Folkstone clean beach scheme, the treatment plant was built at Capel and tunnels and trenches were dug from Dover and Folkstone. that took foul water to Capel where it was cleaned and then the clean discharge went trough a turbine that generated the power needed to pump the raw water uphill. Mains power was only needed to start the system running. I drove those roads daily inspecting each site, great views across the channel, there was a bakery on the left before reaching Capel that did great buns etc. Often had a pit stop there. Sat here in Vietnam you have brought it all back, THANKS

I would also like to point out that this route is being diverted in the summer time... After leaving Lydd it would normally travel down the Lydd Road passing through Camber and then on to Rye. However during the summer season Camber is gridlocked with traffic hence the diversion from Lydd and onto the A259 via Brenzett and Brookland on route to Rye...

East Kent buses takes me back to my childhood - plum red and dark cream buses so distinctive. A lot has changed down here Sandgate is a very sort after place now and quite posh but I like it.

@davidcollins9512 2 года назад

@@jasonsmart3482 It was always reassuring seeing that red and cream colour on the double-deckers coming along the Esplanade - especially in the stormy winter months when the sea would splash onto the road - often the road would be closed and the busses would divert up Hospital Hill, through Shorncliffe Camp (you could still drive through the camp in the '60's), then down Military Road to the top of Sandgate. Living in the middle we could only guess if the road was closed or not & often only the bus was on the road with little traffic around. If the road was closed we'd have to walk along the storm path (Brewers Hill - West Lawn Gardens/Prospect Rd - Encombe -Hillside - Wilberforce Rd) a walk with a lot of muddy paths and bushes dripping cold water down your necks - so seeing the bus in the distance was always reassuring (if really wet and stormy I'd often wait in the phone box at the bottom of Brewers Hill)

@susi-emily Год назад

@@davidcollins9512 Thanks to the sea defences (building up of shingle by huge earth mover vehicles) that have been put in along the beach at Sandgate, the sea doesn't break over the road anymore. You'll no doubt remember that the Fishermen's Cottages that back onto the promenade through to Folkestone regularly flooded. But that's all stopped and the remains of Sandgate Castle is no longer in threat from the sea. Shorncliffe Camp is mostly gone now, replaced by horrible housing estates. I grew up on Royal Military Avenue (the road opposite the Garrison Church - now the Tower Theatre) in the 70s and 80s, and the Camp was our playground. It's all changed up there.

It was changed a couple of years ago to two way, along with Tram Road, and totally against the wishes of the residents. But Tontine is only two way for buses and taxis. Private vehicles can only drive up the road, not down. Tram Road is now two way for all, and there's been numerous accidents.

Well done my friend absolute magic... Years ago the bus route number was 711 and went from Dover to Brighton... Then it was cut back to Eastbourne and then reduced further to Hastings... They called it the WAVE... However these days the renumbered 102 now terminates at Rye so if you wish to travel on down the coast you catch either the 100 or 101 Via Icklesham or Fairlight... Maximum distance covered from the start point is 56 KM... Bloody EU rules...

@susi-emily 2 года назад

That route confused the hell out of me. Normally the bus goes down New Romney High Street, turns left at Hammonds Corner, down into Lydd past the airport, onto Camber and then out again at the junction that was chocka just before you come into Rye. This did that Lydd section backwards. So yeah, we missed the journey across the Lydd ranges, the watersport lakes, and the wind farm. My favourite part of the journey too. Although the stretch from Dungie past the RSPB reserve is quite pleasant.

@ricktownend9144 11 месяцев назад

I was wondering about the diversion; is that quite common? I last rode this route nearly thirty years ago, and the traffic at the Rye end was pretty bad then, but not in Camber; maybe there were roadworks - I always wonder that the big bus compoanies, who should have some good contacts in the Dept of Transport, can't get some movement on this aspect of road travel, which must seriously damage their revenue. After all, cars and vans etc. can - and usually would want to - use a diversion to avoid roadworks, if they know about them, but buses are really badly affected, and - worst of all - the passengers 'down-wind' of the roadworks may know nothing about them and be wondering where their bus has got to. The obvious solution would be to charge a hefty fee to any organisation which digs up the road, to cove the cost of publicity to drivers and bus passengers, and - if the delays will be serious - to pay for extra buses to be put on.
