Route 67 converts to New Routemaster operation as part of Central London bus route changes

We have recently seen London bus service changes which occurred on 15th June 2019. The changes affected routes 3, 4, 9/N9, 14, 35, 40, 45, 46, 53, 59, 67, 76, 100, 134, 149, 171, 172, 205/N205, 242, 341, 343, 388, 468, 476 and RV1. You can read more on the Central London bus route changes on the TfL website.

A small number of the routes are served with New Routemaster buses and were affected. This has enabled a number of New Routemaster buses to serve another route which is route 67.

The 15th June service changes in central London went ahead, with an estimated PVR reduction of about 40. A late addition to the scheme (adding to TLB657 notes) was a frequency reduction on route 12 and the start of conversion to LTs of Arriva route 67.

London Bus Route 67 serves from Wood Green Station to Dalston Junction Station via West Green. You can view the route map on the TfL website and also the timetable on London Bus Routes website.

You can view the live feed list of buses currently operating on Route 67 on the London Vehicle Finder website.

I’d like to add that LOTS News have done a brief update on the arrival of the new iconic Enviro400EV City for Route 43 which is operated by Metroline.

Many more BDE-class BYD/ADL electrics have been delivered to Metroline and parked at Willesden Junction. Then on 13th June the first of the order for 31 Optare MetroDecker electrics - YJ19 HVA (no fleet number so far) - arrived at Potters Bar.

The Optare MetroDecker electrics will be used for Route 134 which is expected to appear on the route soon.
