Regarding the 328 - initial scheduling looks like it will only be extended to Battersea Bridge, South Side (Elcho Street), not any further. Want a pointless extension. That's a long walk from the the new development and tube stations. Presumably this will give TfL the excuse to get the 19 now. Yeah, I gotta agree with you mate very pointless and short. Could it not extend to the new Battersea Power Station even the consultation on the P5 has been put on hold?

Maybe the Worlds end stand cant be used anymore. If anything I'd rather the route was extended via the Chelsea Harbour to Clapham junction and remove the C3.

Absolutely not, there is no need to replace the C3 - people along the C3 route would end up with a far more unreliable service for starters due to the length of the 328.

Agree, what a waste of money @jordzjohn03 - I think the issue with the P5 consultation was to do with opening up Thessaly Road which is currently a dead end at the Nine Elms end

Rather than as an extension of the 328, which is what no doubt TfL will highlight it as this more than likely might actually involve a chop to the 19 somewhere.

Should at least go down to the Latchmere, but ideally I agree with others that Battersea Power Station would have made it ideal. The new station terminus needs to have buses starting from there going in the opposite direction of the 436.

When is this going to happen? From what I recall it's around April/May 2021. Currently still in the proposal stage so nothing is set in stone yet.

The thing is the 328 and the 19 go in practically opposite directions from Kings Road so local Battersea residents won't see the relevance of replacing a bus route with one that goes nowhere near Hyde Park, Piccadilly, Holborn, etc.

Leave the 328 as it is there doesn't need to be another bus running along Beaufort Street, said it before but will say it again an extension on the 24 to Battersea via Chelsea Bridge would make much more sense and it would only be a very small extension as well. Creates new links as well and it's not like the 24 is a very long route.

In terms of miles it may be short, in reality it's anything but that. I've long held the view that the 24 needs to be one of the Central London routes which get cut simply because the unreliability of the route now is ridiculous with endless protests affecting it. Everyday it pretty much has a new route due to some sort of diversion and I'm amazed any operator can even operate it.

I'll be honest I don't really pay that much interest in the route but it's rare to see a turn on the route on a normal day. Same could have been said with the 88 and look what happened to that.

The 88 generally manages a lot better than the 24, but I see the 24 pretty much daily and I actively avoid using the route due to its unreliability. It's rare to see turns however you still do get quite large gaps on it, and there's quite a lot of turns which are spontaneous where you get pretty much no notice and you're chucked off.

Its problems as you say is protests, diversion etc and stupid TCR Crossrail works and 2-way of TCR. The route doesn't need to be cut, there needs to be some kind of ban on all these stupid protests taking to the streets.

That's a possibility although the C3 picks up quite a few passengers at Earls Court Tesco. An extension of the 328 across Battersea Bridge would make interchange with the 49,319 and 345 easier.
