The 176 stand at TCR isn’t being used by the 29 it seems. Buses standing on the pavement of Tottenham Court Road northbound.

I do think the 24 should have a frequency increase but where would you get the increased frequency buses from? There are spare LT's across the operators The 133 requires some LT’s temporarily from tomorrow onwards so might not be spares immediately. The 133 may well use a couple that are allocated to the 24. |

I thought you said in an earlier post that the 176 was pulled out of TCR in order for the 29 to use its stand? Ironically the 176 has been curtailed to an oversubscribed stand in Aldwych when Trafalgar Square easily has the space for the temporarily truncated route, not least since the 29 is currently not there... |

LT's tend to stick to their actual routes bar some exceptions I have a feeling that might have been an accidental login rather than it actually going on the 133. I could be wrong though I wouldn’t actually know unless I saw the route in person on that particular day/time. |

Yeah I don’t understand why the 176 is terminating in Aldwych either when there is a lot of stand space at Trafalgar Square. |

I could be wrong though I wouldn’t actually know unless I saw the route in person on that particular day/time. I live right next to the 133 route - it's entirely possible even at rush hour to do the old Liverpool Street to Streatham routing. I also seem to remember that someone actually spotted it on route as well. |

Is it possible if 274 and 414 can be merged from Islington Angel to Putney Bridge? Since people in the past said that 274 and 414 are not lengthy and some people think 414 should be withdrawn.
Also extending bus 30 to Lancaster Gate to retain the link between Baker Street and Lancaster Gate if this is possible.

Do people in Putney need a link to Camden Town? Do people in the Caledonian Road area need a link to South Kensington? |
