A bad idea. That won’t help anything in reality. There are much more concerning things that should be going on than giving a bus route a colour

This article is from May 2017! It's been discussed a lot in these forums (and usually derided) and the trials in Barkingside and Hayes seem to have been something of a damp squib. 

London has just too many routes.

Why's it a bad idea? I mean surely nobody is going to stop using buses because of it? Seems to work very well in many other towns and cities.

This trial has been and pretty much gone for a lot of routes.

Seems to have just been quietly forgotten about.
