Caroline Pidgeon, the Liberal Democrat London Assembly Transport Spokesperson, has received assurances from Transport for London (TfL) that significant improvements will take place on an important Lambeth bus route.
Caroline took up the issue with TfL after concerns were raised by local residents and Liberal Democrat councillors. She has now been informed by TfL that the 59 bus route that runs from Streatham to Euston bus station, via Brixton station, Lambeth North station and Aldwych, will see far more buses running northward. The improvements should take place towards the end of the year.
Caroline said:
”After a lot of campaigning by local councillors and residents I am delighted that the frequency of buses on this important bus route will increase later in the year. This is at present a very busy bus route and extra buses are desperately needed. This will make a real difference, with people waiting less time to catch a bus and hopefully buses being a lot less crowded!”
