Bad news, south London. Three of your bus routes could be getting the chop from TfL. Transport for London has announced plans to make changes to routes between Elephant & Castle, Camberwell, Brixton, Clapham Park, Streatham, and Morden.
However, Londoners have until October 13 to give TfL their feedback online to possibly prevent these changes.
What TfL Bus Routes Are Being Removed?
Routes 45, 59, and 118 are all facing changes. The 118 currently operates between Brixton Road/Police Station and Morden Station. TfL proposes that this route be axed and merged with Route 45, meaning areas from both routes would be serviced entirely by one bus. This route would go between Morden and Camberwell.
Proposed Changes to Route 59
Route 59 isn’t being cut, but TfL wants it to be re-routed to finish at Clapham Park/Atkins Road instead of Streatham Hill/Telford Avenue.
For those concerned about these changes, now is the time to express your feedback through the consultation process. Your input can be crucial in preserving route preferences for better connectivity in South London.
