Oh I see what you mean. Yes postponed often means they then get announced at very short notice.

Hearing more reductions and route changes already consulted on being “postponed”. More bad news for bus passengers... Bad news that they've been postponed? Yes more bad news for bus passengers because of more frequency cuts. Some route changes postponed. Seems silly to consult on changes and then not do it. Probably looking for more ways to save money ( don’t bother consulting is one )

Also nothing more than a legal requirement.

Probably looking for more ways to save money ( don’t bother consulting is one ) Hmmm this looks like a mix of political intervention and very bad planning on the part of TfL. We have seen far too many instances of changes made being and then reversed within months. I do wonder just what on earth is going on. I suspect the Richmond area scheme has died a partial death because of problems with vehicle sizes / weights over Hammersmith Bridge. I also suspect ripping the 110 away from Twickenham and cuts to the H37 have gone down badly with locals.

Am I right in saying on 6th April the 207/607 will still run to White City because there has been no consultation?

Tfl do seem to have reached a stalemate on these changes. Whislt we should be patient it's strange that they haven't even made one of their announcements saying we had a high level of responses and will make a decision shortly. It's been a long time since the consultation closed so there may be some hard negotiations going on before any decisions can be released. There might also be the matter of how to negotiate reductions of work with operators. At least the 88/C2 change had the Abellio route C2 contract coming to an end.

Same with the 139 being able to be removed from the tender program.

I'm surprised they still refer to the cut as "Holborn", the buses don't even make it to Chancery Lane let alone Holborn.
