Today (Monday 6 March), Transport for London (TfL) has launched public consultations on improving buses in outer London.

As part of this public consultation, TfL is proposing additional bus stops to some existing routes to adapt and serve the future new Brent Cross West station, the growing Brent Cross Town community and other developments around Edgware Road.

The buses routes which are subject to the changes are: 102, 189, 210, 232, 266, 316, 326 and C11.

The proposals are designed to be introduced over a period of time as the development expands, new roads are built, and people move into the area.

Visit here to see detailed route maps and the proposed stop changes for each bus route.

Cllr Alan Schneiderman, Chair of Barnet Environment & Climate Change Committee said: “More frequent and additional bus services are crucial to help connect communities in a more sustainable way and to keep an outer-London borough like Barnet moving. I welcome this extra investment from the Mayor and TfL, including bus connections to the new Brent Cross West station. I encourage as many people as possible to respond to the consultation.”

As well as the proposed bus changes in the Brent Cross Cricklewood area, there are changes also proposed across other London boroughs.

Geoff Hobbs, Director of Public Transport Service Planning at TfL, said: “Access to public transport is vital to encourage sustainable growth in London and allow everyone to make the most of the city. Buses play a fundamental role in that, which is why we’re pleased to be launching consultations on improving buses in outer London.

“More frequent, direct and usable services will help make buses the natural choice across the city, which is especially important as we tackle economically damaging congestion, health damaging toxic air and climate damaging carbon.”
