If anything I would like to see the 15 extended back further east to Canning Town this would provided some assistance to the busy 115. I can't see the route ever going further west especially with the proposed changes in the Oxford Circus area. Even when the route last ran there it stopped short of Oxford Street and was a long walk to the first eastbound stop. I can remember the 8 going to Wembley and 15 to Kew Green !! 15 use to be East Ham to Richmond that must be fun

I can remember the 8 going to Wembley and 15 to Kew Green !! 15 use to be East Ham to Richmond that must be fun In May 1975 the Sunday service on the 15 was extended/diverted from Kew Gardens Station to Richmond, but no buses ran through from East Ham to Richmond. Upton Park (U) buses never went further west than the former terminus at East Acton(Goldsmoths Arms), so RMLs on the 15 never reached Richmond or even Kew. Buses allocated to Middle Row(X) did cover the whole route but there were still no through journeys. On a Saturday RMs from X ran between Ladbroke Grove/Kensal Rise Station to East Ham(White Horse), although during the day many buses were scheduled to curtail from the west at Aldych. On a Sunday the X allocation ran between Richmond and Aldgate.

It seems strange that the 168 is still here considering that they put the consultation before the central London consultation yet it's already been 4 months since those routes disappeared/changed

Made it a weekend of bus changes. There were plenty of ibus announcements telling of the changes and direction to a separate website to view the changes.

I do think the C10 should now drop the C and become plain 10… 😶 I agree, as it was introduced as a replacement of route 510, itself a replacement of route 10 in 1988.

Route 15 continued to Richmond until 1981.

I can remember when the 9 used to run from Mortlake Garage - Becontree Heath on a Sunday, as the 23 never ran on that day.

Any update on the 211's Battersea extension/rerouting? I think it will happen when the 211 passes to Transport UK on June 29th.

My assumption is that it will use the existing (but closed since the works started) stand. It is the only place a bus can turn close to the Power Station.
