Paddington bus crash: Double-decker roof crushed after it crashes into taxi rank

The entryway is believed to be the entrance to the Paddington taxi rank area.

Police were spotted at the scene.

The crash, which occurred shortly before 9am, happened after the bus made a right turn and collided with a height-restricted entryway.

Signage at the entrance clearly states a maximum height of 3.6m with London buses typically ranging in height from between 4.5 to 4.7 meters.

Pictures taken by a GB News reporter on the scene show the top of the bus crushed with the windows on the top layer of the bus shattered.

At time of writing, the entrance to the taxi rank is down to a single-lane of moving traffic.

According to the Met Police, the incident was a damage-only collision and resulted in no reported injuries

Further inquiries have been made to TfL and the local authority as to any damage to the bridge.

GB News has contacted TfL and Network Rail for further comment.
