  • Customer: the 07:35 Left Over 6 Minutes Early. Yesterday the Bus
    1416351 Customer: The 07:35 left over 6 minutes early. Yesterday the bus left over 5 minutes early. Response: No response required 1428677 Customer: Good morning I am a regular user of this route, please explain why the 07:02 Bus at Felthambrook Way(TW13) towards Hatton Cross did not run this morning, I and many others rely on this service to start getting to work. My observations are that these cancellations happen far too frequently, this is not acceptable particularly in the peak times when these buses are heavily used. Also despite recently "tinkering" with the timetable which has made life more difficult for the drivers concerned still DO NOT run to time often enough. I look forward to your response, thank you. Response: Dear Mr ROUTE H25 Thank you for contacting us about this service. I can understand your frustration and I am sorry for any inconvenience caused to you. We are totally committed to providing a first class bus network for our passengers and welcome any comments that will help us to improve our services. Sometimes if the traffic is unexpectedly busy or the operator is experiencing staff shortage, the buses can be delayed or services can be missed out. This can lead to a longer wait than usual for a bus to arrive. You will be pleased to know that we are always working with our operators to reduce the impact of these factors on the bus schedules. I have also contacted Abellio London who operate the H25 for us. They have investigated the late running of the 07:02 bus towards Hatton Cross and have reported that due to a gas leak and roadworks at Feltham Station Bridge where Temporary traffic lights were in operation it was necessary to curtail the 7:02 service and run it light to Hatton Cross in order to ensure that the service was balanced.

  • Clapham Transport Users Group Response to Tfl/Dft Consultation
    Response to TfL/DfT Consultation On Devolving Control of London Rail Services to the Mayor of London is a voluntary stakeholder representative body advocating on behalf of public transport users in the Clapham area of South London. Our focus is on Tube, Bus, Dial-A-Ride and Rail services with full examination given to the inter-modal relationships between different forms of transport and the impact of transport with wider issues in Clapham and beyond. We have a valuable perspective to offer in our response to the consultation in that the suburban stations of Clapham High Street and Wandsworth Road were once run by British Rail and later Southern Trains but transferred to TfL as part of the extension of the London Overground East London Line Extension to Clapham Junction. The Clapham Transport Users Group was part of a ground of stakeholder bodies invited by TfL in 2006 to consider the development of a pan-London rail network under TfL control which led to the evolution of London Overground. Context Transport for London was set up in 2000 to replace London Transport and have steadily increased its control of public transport beyond the established areas of Bus and Tube. In 2006 TfL gained control of some orbital rail services previously operated by Silverlink Metro and re-branded as London Overground: it has steadily expanded to include all orbital rail services, an expansion of the East London Line and some suburban services out of Liverpool Street, including trains to Shenfield which will become Crossrail. In the political climate of greater devolution, the lack of control by TfL of London’s suburban rail network has been a significant anomaly, resulting in inconsistency of standards across rail networks not run by TfL.
