Extend 432 and maybe N2 to Elmers End I've long called for the 432 to receive this extension and not only would it be feasible (even with the lights at Robin Hood in Anerley), it would provide a much more direct link from Elmers End to Palace but also a quicker link from Tramlink to Palace and beyond. The route could stand on Elmers End Green with the interchange served in both directions. Not sure on the N2 though |

Yeah that’s exactly what I proposed for the 310 and that would connect Manor House, Haringey and Crouch End, also Crouch End with Highgate Station and Golders Green. But there’s nothing wrong with also sending the 153 down that road as well. This would connect Holloway with Stroud Green Road and that would be a quick shortcut to Haringey from avoiding traffic in Green Lanes such as the 141 from Moorgate which the 153 nearly starts from or the 29 from Holloway. |

The 45/59/118 proposal has squashed my rather tongue in cheek and entirely impractical plan to revive the old tramway replacement style of operation by merging the 59 and 133 into 59L and 59W.
Both would start from Streatham Station, the 59L running over the 133 via London Bridge (hence the L) to Holborn before returning via the 59. The 59W would run in the opposite direction. A bold return to the days of the 155B and 155W.

93 extended to Sutton and 293 withdrawn. I don't know capacity on the routes that would take up the slack 163 on Hillcross avenue. Apart from Garth Road I personally don't see issues but I am open to being wrong it's mainly pure speculation

You don't mention anything about Epsom I meant Epsom Idk why I said Sutton That makes more sense, anyhow, it wouldn't happen as it wouldn't be the best usage of funding to have a 12 bph(I think it is 12) route all the way down to Epsom that operates 24hrs and it would probably be too long of a route as well |

Garth Road is also way more popular than you think it is as is Hillcross Avenue. The 163 would likely need a boost to maintain capacity on the stretch. The 293 has been a lifeline to the area when there have been rail strikes especially as it relatively short and easily accessible. For me removing it is a non-starter as it was one of the best changes in Sutton/Merton in the last 20 years. |

Having a N93 from Epsom to Putney Bridge could be an idea

Having a N93 from Epsom to Putney Bridge could be an idea Epsom doesn’t really need a night service, the whole town is dead after 11pm. Even the spoons closes well before the final buses. |

That's abit of an exaggeration the last 293 is before and there is only a 406 and a 166 after the closing of the pubs |
