Id have thought the 159 would have turned off at the top of Regent Street then stood on Holles Street in place of the 25.

We keep thinking the 159 will supply buses for the 415 yet we have no date yet for the cut. Based on the 27 and 88 public announcements I guess we can expect 2 weeks or less notice for the change now. The only stand available will be the Conduit Street Stand should the change take place in the first week of April. Slightly more than the proposed Oxford Circus cut, it warranted its own display when approached from the South on the 15 and while the 3 was cut there it was even classified as Piccadilly Circus. Isn't there stand space available at Oxford Circus from when the 137 got cut back to Marble Arch, or is it that now used by another route? ( I'm not quite up to date with what's changed and what's yet to change )

Technically the 113 replaced the 189 stand.

113/137/189 stands are/were for routes departing westbound along Oxford Street and don't lend themselves to anything else.

113/137/189 stands are/were for routes departing westbound along Oxford Street and don't lend themselves to anything else. The 22 temporarily stood there when it was initially extended. Although it was quite tight when turning back East to head onto Regent Street and I imagine it played a factor in relocating it to the Henrietta Place stand when the 159 vacated it.

Bit off topic, but interestingly any route that has served/serves Conduit Street, seems to be doomed with cuts/changes, later down the line. The 8/15/C2/3/22/N22 all have seen/will see some changes to their routing.

Seems to be a belated reaction to the recent change to HD. Buses that used to run empty from HD to Belmont Circle will now start in service at Wealdstone.

I don’t understand why they can’t do the driver changeovers at Ealing Hospital.

When it transferred to HD, journeys that previously started at Edgware were back projected to Belmont Circle. This means buses would run down towards Wealdstone and perhaps do the left turn onto Locket Road. Is that turn possible as it does look a bit tight? Maybe if that wasn’t possible it would go up to the Palmerston Road roundabout and do a u-turn there

I can't see what garage change would lead to those journeys being extended to Wealdstone so maybe the explanation that TfL have given isn't quite right.

Also worth noting that the publication date is moving to a Friday in future and the scope of changes being covered is changing too.
