Routes 67 and 149 bus proposal by TfL Have Your Say

Transport for London (TFL) recently published a major proposal on a new set of bus changes on routes 67 and 149, we need your help to save our buses! They have proposed to permanently withdraw the 149s section to Edmonton Green.

Route 149 is one of London's busiest bus routes carrying approximately 12 million passengers annually, it is also the only bus route in the Enfield borough that takes you the furthest into central London from Edmonton Green to London Bridge.  Losing this vital link to Edmonton green will mean passengers will have to forcefully change on multiple buses to complete their journey considering 349 is getting withdrawn soon, this means routes 259 and 279 will be the only routes travelling through the A1010 corridor if the changes were to proceed.

Most residents in Enfield use Buses as their main mode of transport due to the lack of London Underground and half of Enfield's bus routes have already suffered frequency reductions.  A bus withdrawal in Enfield heavily impacts other services making travelling insufferable during peak hour times. Communities across North London will be cut off and worse off under these proposals.

The government need to properly fund TfL to provide affordable and sustainable public transport, and TfL needs to protect these vital services. We are asking residents and locals to sign our petition, protest against these changes, respond to TfL’s consultation and help Enfield save our buses.

TFL's consultation is live until 20th September. It proposes the following changes:

• Route 67 from Wood Green to Dalston Junction would be withdrawn.
• Route 149 would be rerouted to run from Wood Green to London Bridge replacing route 67 entirely at a reduced weekday frequency.

Buses are an affordable and sustainable way for many of our residents to get around North London.
