London is facing dramatic cuts to bus services
New proposals from the Mayor and Transport for London could see up to 78 routes changed of which 21 routes would be cut completely:
- Nearly 1 in 20 bus kilometres will be cut
- Cuts to routes and night buses affect 23 boroughs
- Around 80 new changes between buses involve a different stop: this will especially impact people with wheelchairs and buggies.
If these cuts go ahead, it will harm many Londoners (and visitors) who can least afford to lose these services. Many of us will find it harder to get to work, see family and friends, or get to essential services.
While the Conservative Government has been playing politics with London's finances, starving Transport for London of much-needed money, the Mayor's proposal to cut these services is not the answer.
Sign our petition now to call on the Mayor to work with central government and local councils to find alternatives to these cuts.
