East end of Wrottesley Road, Tettenhall (2) Trolleybuses on route 1 from Wolverhampton town centre once turned in this junction, and after their replacement on this route in 1963, motorbuses did the same until the route was extended to Tettenhall Wood via Regis Road in the mid 1980s. The junction has since been remodelled (the patch of grass in the centre of the picture has replaced part of the road), so I doubt one could turn a bus in it now.
