Courtesy of a prompt elsewhere I have seen the new quadrant bus maps on the TfL website. There appear to be some design tweaks to the maps with the most important being that hail and ride sections of route are now marked out in a different colour - really very effective. www.tfl.gov.uk/maps/bus |

Is this just on the website or will it be in foldable map form as well?

The inspector's office at Victoria Bus Station nearly always has the newest maps because they hand so many out they don't have boxes of old stock lying around. Ask there next time you've got a layover on the 38. |

I still miss the borough-by-borough foldout maps. Foolishly they all failed to survive a house move in the early 2000s. As did, what I remember being, a very nifty map explaining the significant Bexley area changes in 1999.

Indeed, I miss my old 1995 Brixton area bus guide which included those rare 800 series mobility routes. |

South East and South West are the new format but you are quite correct that NE and NW have reverted for some daft reason.    |

All the maps look unchanged to me. Certainly no new red Hail and Ride roads  |

Certainly no new red Hail and Ride roads Look closer at somewhere like Sutton or Orpington on the relevant South map and you will see some roads picked out in a different colour. As I'm colour blind I can't be certain what the colour is (!) but I can see it differs from the normal colour for a stopping bus route. |

And I'm not colour blind looks like I have the newer SE and SW in my PC's cache but that TfL have swapped the online maps back for some reason. I have managed to save the SE and SW ones to my PC so if anyone wants those send me a DM with a valid E Mail address and I'll E Mail those pdfs. |

NE & NW contains the hail and ride roads for me but SE & SW doesn't contain the hail and ride roads for me. |

SE and NE have the new versions and Central, NW and SW have reverted to the old versions.
