- N171 rerouted to terminate at Hither Green Station as opposed to Bellingham. - Route 188 was temporarily extended to Euston during the Olympics. I personally didn't see what use it made. But hey, it was an interesting extension to have.

N171 rerouted to terminate at Hither Green Station as opposed to Bellingham. Route N171 originally served Hither Green, then it was diverted to Bellingham and then diverted back to Hither Green after a Consultation for it to return back.
