Bus Stop Closures

[busoccultation]

Not too sure if this thread is a great idea, but anyway this thread is to inform or discuss any stop closures in London whatever they are temporary closure due to road works or a permanent bus stop closures.

Anyway to start this thread off:

Ilford Station Stop H (Used by 128, 150, 167, 296, 364, 396 & 462) is temporary closed due to pavement works with temporary stop outside Paddy Power shop and Stop G (Used by 123, 145, 179 & 366) returns to its normal stop opposite Station Road.

Thanks for sharing that. I was wondering yesterday when the 123 stop would return to normal.

Ah it has swapped back then. Caused no end of confusion with 123 passengers sticking their mits out as the bus goes by Ilford Stn. One Saturday I was downstairs at the front and pointed like a lunatic to move along. One chap who saw me did find the temporary stop and catch the bus.


One temporary stop closure is Wolsey Avenue w/b on the 123 - closed due to cycle lane works. I expect the works will move on in a week or so and result in Higham Hill Rd w/b being closed for the 123 and W11.

There was also a temp stop closure "hat" over the flag at Crooked Billet Roundabout on the 34 westbound (near the footbridge over the A406). Couldn't see if there was a dolly stop or not.

Upcoming stop closures will affect Palmerston Rd, E17. Evening and overnight from 21/5 to 25/5 the W11 and W15 will divert via Forest Rd, Blackhorse Rd, Mission Grove to then return to line of route. There are roadworks at the Higham Hill Rd / Palmerston Rd / Forest Rd junction at this time. The Renness Rd stop (towards Hackney) on the W15 will also be closed leaving a massive gap between stops on the W15 (assuming it will stop on the diversion route).

Beattyville Gardens stop on Cranbrook Road on the 128, 150 & 167 towards Barkingside is closed to Gas Works.

Sungate Cottages stops on the 247 is closed both directions due to utility works.

Currently stops in both directions at Ponders End Station for the 191 on Alma Road/ South Street are closed due to contraflow roadworks.

Wolsey Avenue w/b on the 123 has reopened. However the next stop - Higham Hill Road - is closed thus removing an interchange stop between the 123 and W11/W15. Again this is for cycle lane works and will be relatively short lived.

Before a extension or a new bus route gets introduced, when do they put the bus number on the bus stop?

Probably a week/2weeks.

Lower Road / Plough Way stop (47, 188, 225, N1) is in the process of being removed (the stop shelter and pole at least) and buses no longer stop here as of recent due to the CS4 cycle lane which is nearly 100% complete.

Evelyn Street / Grinstead Road stop (47, 188, 199, N1, N199) was also removed last year for the same reason as the above.
