There are changes coming to seven bus routes in London this weekend, as part of Transport for London’s efforts to align with the Mayor’s Transport Strategy. The goal is to have 80 per cent of journeys made by foot, bike, or public transport by 2041. Currently, there are about 9,300 buses operating on 675 different routes in London.
The upcoming timetable changes aim to better match demand, provide value for money, and allow for investment in outer London. Starting this Saturday, August 10, the following adjustments will be made to the bus routes:
– Route 127 will return to running every 10 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays, and every 15 minutes in the evening and all day on Sundays.
– Route 195 will run every 12 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays, every 15 minutes during the daytime on Sundays, and every 20 minutes in the evening on all days of the week.
– Route 427 will operate every 8 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays, every 10 minutes during the daytime on Sundays, and every 12 minutes in the evening throughout the week.
– Route 482 will run every 20 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays, and every 30 minutes in the evening and all day on Sundays.
– Route E5 will operate every 12 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays, and every 20 minutes in the evening and all day on Sundays.

These changes are designed to improve efficiency, reliability, and overall service quality for passengers using these bus routes. It’s important for commuters to stay informed about these adjustments to plan their journeys accordingly and minimize any inconvenience. Transport for London is constantly working to optimize the bus network to better serve the needs of Londoners and enhance the overall public transportation experience in the city.
