Please can you advise if Liverpool Street Station is now re-open? And if so what routes are running from there?

11, 23, 47 ( only between 0600 and 2359 with night service continuing to Shoreditch), 133, N11 and N133 Two questions? When did the bus station re-open as I was under the impression the works there had been delayed? When did the 47 begin terminating at Liverpool Street again as I could of sworn it was still heading to Shoreditch at all times?

It reopened over the Bank Holiday weekend but later than expected - on the Sunday I think. Certainly wasn't open on Saturday as I went past. The 47 was subject to an emergency change following the Tooley St "one waying" over the Bank Holiday weekend. Goes to the bus station daytimes but Shoreditch during the night. I suspect this will last the full two years of the Tooley St closure unless TfL are willing to pay for more buses. Past experience suggests they won't be given the 47 had a long term curtailment before.

214 is the only route yet to return to LST.
Going by Crossrail renderings, am I right in assuming the 100 will no longer run via the bus station too?

I hope route 47 doesn't go to the Bus Station (permantly). The 47 is one of the handiest routes in Central London providing a link between Shoreditch and Bishopsgate to London Bridge (Tooley Street). At least terminate it at where routes 42 & 344 terminate, or change route 35.

It's only for the duration of the Thameslink works On Tooley St so in 2yrs it will revert back to Shoreditch full time, also it probably confusing for passengers, as said above If it is to run to/from Shoreditch all the time it would have to increase its pvr probably by a minimum of 3 plus i would guess, got a email back from tfl saying that if performance is still affected then they will raise its pvr. I was also wondering why it don't terminate where the 42 & 344 terminate but that may be due to stand space being limited but I'm not to sure

I didn't have to use it during the last closure.

iBus on route 23 has been updated to "23 to Liverpool Street Bus Station" whereas route 11 is still just "11 to Liverpool Street".

Is there any reason why the 214 is still curtailed at Moorgate but the 153 is restored to the bus station?
Am I to assume it's to free up capacity for the 47 because Liverpool Street doesn't exactly have scope to expand on stand space with pretty high frequency routes terminating there. At its peak, the bus station saw the 11, 23, 133, 153, 214 & 271 terminate there with the 100 and 205 as [eastbound] through routes circumnavigating the bus station. To avoid buses battling for stand space; the 271 had its daily services cut back to Finsbury Square and the 133 started to stand at its allocated bus stop.
From the looks of it I answered my own question loool but would like someone to verify initially why the 214 (and 11 it seems) are not back at the bus station. I know that because of construction works the 42 & 344 are sharing stands. Before these works they had individual stands on Worship Street so that rules out the 47 standing there as there's currently no spare capacity.
