Keep the 465 bus route running from Kingston to Dorking


Keep the 465 bus route running from Kingston to Dorking
The Issue
The 465 is a TFL London bus that runs between Kingston and Dorking. The service is run and managed on behalf of TFL by Quality Line (Epsom Coaches).
TFL and Surrey County Council are due to consult on considering whether to curtail the 465 route such that it would only run as far as Leatherhead. This would be a financial decision purely to save money, and does not take into account the real value of this service, which is an absolute lifeline for the people of Dorking, Mickleham, Fetcham and Leatherhead. Many people travel to work from Dorking to Leatherhead and beyond on this bus. Many children travel to school. It also connects the citizens of Dorking and Leatherhead to the cultural, social and retail facilities of Kingston.
TFL and Surrey County Council, please do NOT remove the funding that allows this service to run from Kingston all the way to Dorking.
