TfL Bus Alerts

Good Evening, I have restarted monitoring this account again, following an admittedly long break. I won't monitor this account 24/7, but should hopefully reply within around 24 hours :) Reminder that I do not work for TfL, but am just here to assist with your enquiries Thanks, ^W

@sweepy555 Hi, you'd need to get in contact with TfL (tfl.gov.uk/help-and-conta…) regarding this. Thanks, ^W

@TfLBuses Can a temporary 107 bus stop going towards edgware be put at elstree hill south / centennial park the bus stop at Sullivan way is extremely far away

@fidoxcanarias Hi, I happen to have also experienced this recently. Believe this is due to extremely heavy traffic around Battersea Park, which is delaying buses. There is also a diversion from Garratt Lane today due to roadworks, which is also delaying the service. ^W

@TfLBuses what's going on with the first stop of 44 in victoria? It's being crazy the last few days. Waiting for an hour and no 44

@CPalmer06 Apologies for the late reply. So the driver did not stop to let you off when on diversion (such as at Little Ilford Lane bus stop), and only let you off after First Avenue? If so, I would suggest filling in this form (tfl.gov.uk/help-and-conta…) as drivers should be stopping. ^W

@TfLBuses Every stop from Desingham Ave onwoard had to get off way past First ave

@TfLBuses why is that on the 147 toward canning town, that your only told of divertion as its about to happen. This has happened to me twice now. And both drivers very rude, and one wouldn't open the doors after the annoucment so i could at try to get closer to where i needed. 🤬

@Thryduulf @TfL Hmm, this is strange. I can access all routes. I know that there are problems where the route apparently doesn't exist, but these are very rare (In 2019 the 65 wasn't showing for example). I suggest you email customerservices@tfl.gov.uk as I don't know what else to suggest. ^W

@TfLBuses @TfL Your link works, and trying again today some other links work (e.g. 474), some give me the same error as yesterday (e.g. 22) and some give me an error "there were no results for your search" (e.g. 9). There isn't any pattern I've been able to determine. 1/2

The @TfL @TfLBuses status updates page on the website is broken. Whatever route you select leads to "Sorry, that page cannot be found" tested with routes D6, D7, 277, 15, 22 and 53, e.g. tfl.gov.uk/bus/status/?In…

@chatnmeetcoffee @TfL @SadiqKhan Hi, you can report this to TfL and the operator (Stagecoach London) so they can investigate. Link : tfl.gov.uk/help-and-conta… Thanks, ^W

@TfL @TfLBuses @SadiqKhan this bus was spluttering this out earlier today as it stopped at the bus stop in Clapton Pond and then took off on its journey Pretty sure it’s not climate friendly?

@BishopsfordRoad @TfL @MayorofLondon @SadiqKhan @Merton_Council @cllr_alambritis @Go_Ahead_London Hi, this was a short notice diversion, and was cleared as soon as possible. See screenshot for reason of closure. I understand there has been confusion, I believe buses shouldn't have picked up on the normal Line Of Route that day as they should've been diverted. Thanks, ^W

To add to the confusion a 280 has just gone through, picking up passengers at the closed bus stop. @TfL @TfLBuses @MayorofLondon @SadiqKhan @Merton_Council @cllr_alambritis @Go_Ahead_London

@CiesseJay Hi, TfL and the operator for route 6 (Metroline) will try to do so if you fill in this form : tfl.gov.uk/help-and-conta… Thanks, ^W

@TfLBuses 2. By now it was about 09.00 or 09.10. I don’t know either of their names or numbers but they were so friendly & helpful & made my day! If there is any way you can find them to thank them for me, I’d be really grateful. Thank you! 😎

@garlandsmith @TfL @SadiqKhan Actually looking at it, an extra bus has already been added to the service. ^W

@TfL @tflbuses @SadiqKhan I think whoever came up with this certainly doesn’t take the 133 to work every morning! I honestly thought the communication would say “more buses” not “fewer” ! And no way to give feedback, no consultation period …

@garlandsmith @TfL @SadiqKhan Hi, I'm not aware about the 133 specifically, however these changes usually occur due to roadworks/increased traffic affecting services. Extra buses may not always be possible to keep the current service, so may be reduced, usually by no more than an extra 1 or 2 minutes wait. ^W

@eftagroup Hi, unfortunately I've only just logged on, so haven't been able to check what's been happening with the route. ^W

@TfLBuses few if any number 20's running this morning - any idea what's going on?

@MiBizC Hi, that's good to hear. You can put in some positive feedback here (tfl.gov.uk/help-and-conta…) if you want. Thanks, ^W

@sleeper_fan Hello :) ^W

@MaggieSimpson49 One more update : This has now been passed on to engineers so one will be arranged to come and fix it soon. ^W

@TfLBuses any chance you can fix this, been out of order for weeks. Stop F outside Charing Cross. Thanks.

Did you know? Over the past 2 weeks, brand new state of the art Hydrogen powered buses have started being introduced on the 7 between East Acton & Oxford Circus. These only emit water (nothing else!), feature LED displays, and systems such as digital mirrors to make the bus safer

ALL strikes set for tomorrow, Wednesday and next month have been cancelled. No routes will now be affected by any strike action

@experimentalpie Hi, please make a complaint here (tfl.gov.uk/help-and-conta…) so that TfL can investigate. ^W
