In an ideal world I would rather like the 271 to be rerouted to Shoreditch via the 135. It would create nice new links to the east of the city from Essex Road & Holloway and maybe create a nice round the corner link.
Thought it would be better to put this here instead of in the other thread. By the way this would use the 11s stand in Liverpool Street.

Perhaps the 89 could terminate at Bexleyheath Bus Garage instead of Slade Green. The 428 will operate to Bexleyheath Shopping Centre instead of Erith to cover the 89's section from Slade Green to Bexleyheath.

Although this is the fantasy thread, there is no room at Bexleyheath, Shopping Centre for another terminating route hence why the 422 had a stand created for it when it passed to Stagecoach.

No, the 301 uses Market Place. Arnsberg Way (TA) is currently only a stop of last resort if the Clock Tower area is closed.

DT 11 drives buses at DT, if he saying the 301 uses the stand on Arnsberg Way, I don't think we can argue with that

And perhaps instead of using the 132 Geddes Place, it could use the 99 one.

Market Place at Bexleyheath on Arnsberg Way is the 301 StandSorry for typing in bold but I’ve driven the 301 and all of DTs routes so I would know what I’m talking about… If you look at this screenshot you will notice the stands are full. 99s regularly double park as there officially only 1 bus can fit on the stand. 401 uses the middle stand. Overall I don’t see the point of your idea to cut the 89 to Bexleyheath, Shopping Centre when it runs fine in its current form between Lewisham Station & Slade Green…

Phase 2 map: I know these are in the fantasy section but would suggest not adding dates as that could be a little misleading and people might think these changes are happening.
Just a suggestion

Phase 2 map: 301/B11 : the B11 won’t cope with peak hour traffic on Woolwich Road, so this idea is a non-starter. B14 : too much like the B13 to be viable or sensible.
