I'm not surprised at this, the route could also do with a frequency increase to every 15 mins Monday-Saturday

It's crazy that a route like this doesn't have a Sunday service, Bromley is packed with shoppers on a Sunday

The service specification would have gone out ages ago to form part of the Invitation To Tender. In other words, the decision will have already been made. |

The service specification would have gone out ages ago to form part of the Invitation To Tender. In other words, the decision will have already been made. Safer to say that it *might* have been made already. It's entirely plausible that TfL have asked for a priced option for a Sunday service and will take a view on whether to activate it or not depending on the bids received back and the general state of the bus tenders budget. If there's a saving elsewhere that allows a Sunday 354 to be provided then it could go ahead. I wouldn't hold my breath, though, as Bromley is not a pro-bus borough and it's been a long while since a Sunday service was actually added to a route - the 146 was the last one I think. I think Bromley is the borough with the most M-S only routes. It edges ahead of Barnet, Kingston, Hillingdon and Havering. |
