Currently there are 25
New Routemaster routes serving
Central London.
A small number of
these routes have an open platform with 2nd crew member which is the original feature of
the New Routemaster.
Route 189 will be
converting to NRMs shortly. Route 76 is next on the list to convert to New
Routemasters as a new contract has been awarded to Go Ahead London; the expected date to enter service is on 28th January 2017.
This was just a short
informational article on London Bus routes that are served with the New
Routemaster bus.
