I’m not a bus catcher unless there’s an emergency and my neighbourhood seems to be devoid of Canberra’s iconic ‘solid as a rock’ 1975 bus stop creations of Clem Cummings that serve as cold concrete lumps placed just a bit ‘skew wiff’ for visibility and cold concrete protection.
The Clem Cummings creations have been given a new lease on life and dare I say it status.
