Recent seven-year contract awards will see over 100 new battery electric buses join London bus fleets next spring and summer. However, new electric vehicles may enter service after the contract start date, dependent on infrastructure and/ or vehicle delivery timescales. Most routes remain with their current operators but route 379 (Chingford -Yardley Lane) will pass from London General to Stagecoach East London whilst Abellio London will take over route S3 (Belmont - Maiden Manor) from London United. Route 306 (Acton Vale - Sands End) will also see a new operator, the third since its introduction in December 2019. Originally run by London United it passed to Metroline in December 2020. Following the invoking of a break clause in the current contract the route was retendered early and will pass to Abellio next April. |
