Wonder if Abellio have considered bidding for any tenders in the Harrow area or would they consider it to far from there depot in Hayes Probably not the local Harrow routes but possible for the routes between Harrow and Ealing/Hayes. They are likely to be the 3rd bidder for 140/N140 and X140 and maybe the 395. I’m sure they would have a go at bidding for the 483

I’m sure they would have a go at bidding for the 483 Would've thought they would have quite a good chance for the 483, it pretty much terminates at GW as it is. All they need to do is electrify the garage, submit a cheap bid and they should be good to go.

Planning permission was granted, but maximum number of buses was cut to 56 However there are very long list of conditions to use the site There is a no idling clause, so in winter buses will either have to depart cold, or be fitted with an alternative eg electric pre-heaters The Council have even insisted on the buildings lift being operational before anyone uses site (Abellio weren’t going to fit one, hoping even those with disabilities would use the stairs) planning.hillingdon.gov.uk/OcellaWeb/viewDocument?file=dv_pl_files%5C3886_APP_2020_3751%5Cpdecstd-3886_APP_2020_3751-CHF-20210603-1103642973.pdf&module=plAlso appears a schedule 106 document was signed on 21st May, committing Abellio to provide £19,283 to Air Quality Improvement before any work commences on the site, and they have to pay £120,225 to improve the highway (including constructing a bell mouth junction) before they can use it. Also got to put up a £20,000 bond to ensure they stick to the travel plan. The Travel plan has to be audited. planning.hillingdon.gov.uk/OcellaWeb/viewDocument?file=dv_pl_files%5C3886_APP_2020_3751%5CCompleted+21.05.2021+s.106+Cottage+Wall++3886.APP.2020.3751.pdf&module=plI cannot see how they can meet all those conditions and be ready by end of September (which is when lease at Hayes apparently expires), so presumably will either have to get time extension at Hayes or disperse fleet to other garages/sites

Will the 427 require a pvr cut for when it gets rerouted to Southall?

Why is the 27/N27 being cut from Chalk Farm Morrisons to Chalk Farm Road tommorow? Chalk Farm Morrisons site is being redeveloped into the Camden Goods Yard development. There's a temporary Morrisons open on Chalk Farm Road at the moment but my understanding is the 27 will terminate and serve the new development once its opened.

Will this impact on the destination blind? Doubt it considering it still terminates at Chalk Farm just not at the Morrisons It technically still does terminate at Morrisons because of the temporary site which is on the main road. The Morrisons qualifier will still be handy as the route still doesn't reach Chalk Farm Station (as a plain Chalk Farm blind implies for non-locals) so the destination specifics would help.

I would personally advocate for a qualifier and I also would advocate for the really frankly priceless tuny extension to the Station to significantly improve links.

Forgot to report this on Monday but I saw one of the 09 reg Enviro400’s on the 156 completely debranded, looks like it hasn’t got long left in the fleet! I believe it was 9453.
