2012 Games Transport Weymouth & London

During the summer of 2012 London played host to the Olympic Games. Apart from the achievements on the sports field of which the world was focused on there was another fascinating event taking place that involved over 1,000 buses and coaches from all over the United Kingdom. These vehicles were used to transport the athletes, spectators, media and the many volunteers involved with the Games to various venues throughout the country as well as the Olympic Park in Stratford, East London. This video programme features some of the operations in Weymouth where the sailing events were held. We then visit London, where the cameras record some of the movements at the massive Eton Manor Transport Hub and then on to Canning Town, the ExCel Arena and North Greenwich.
