Views are being sought on the proposed route of the next group of London Superloop services. TfL

Transport for London (TfL) is inviting people to have their say on its proposals for the latest routes to form part of its branded express bus routes that form part of the proposed Superloop bus network. New routes SL2 (Walthamstow Central to North Woolwich), SL3 (Thamesmead to Bromley) and SL5 (Bromley to Croydon) services would be a significant addition to the bus network in south and east London, says TfL, providing additional bus capacity in busy locations and encouraging more sustainable journeys. The proposed routes would also allow for quicker journey times and additional transport options in Bromley, Croydon, North Woolwich and Walthamstow.

Consultations are open on the proposals for route SL2, SL3 and SL5 until 4 September and can be accessed via the TfL website.

Geoff Hobbs, Director of Public Transport Service Planning commented: “The proposed Superloop has an important role to play as we aim to increase the number of customers choosing to travel by bus across London and make the network zero-carbon by 2030. The proposed routes would become a key part of the capital’s transport network and provide a vital link for people living in, working in and visiting outer London Feedback from customers is hugely important and I would urge everyone to respond to the consultation. This will enable us to create a bus service which benefits everyone travelling throughout the areas.”
