So dennis dart 8044 is parked up at BC blinded for the 518 which confirms that this route is operated in this garage. Spoke to one of the drivers who done this route and says that he does 80 trips in one duty. This involves filling out four log cards lol Apparently they get one minute standtime at streatham and four minutes at streatham common station Oh dear! How boring much that be. 80 trips of doing the same stretch of a mile within Streatham.

There's a photo on Facebook of 8015 on the route, with a number slipboard in the window. (Without blinds!)

What a shame, the 60 should have been permanently rerouted via Norbury, it seems so much busier and quicker than via Streatham Common Station, not to mention the DW/DLA thrashing along Stanford Road. So the 60 will terminate at Streatham Common from next weekend?

So the 60 will terminate at Streatham Common from next weekend? Yep. There are current and after 23/2/13 spider maps on the TfL website.

Ah, so the date has been changed again. (was meant to reopen today) Looking forward to seeing the 60 serve Streatham again, though I wish the 118 was diverted via Norbury permanently.

Originally the plan was that for the first month the bridge would be reopened with just one lane and a contraflow, but recently they announced it would instead fully open so maybe that is why it has been delayed slightly?
