Welcome to London Bus Routes
I hope you have enjoy viewing this website. London Bus Routes opened in Decmeber 2005, and there was a limited number of photographs and these were taken in the Croydon and Bromley areas. In around May 2006 I decided to change the layout of the website, and make the photos in bus route order, Me and other people thought this was an excellent idea, and the website is still the same today.
On the website you will be able to find photographs of you local London bus route, Histories, the operator and a current timetable link. Only around 30% of the bus routes have histories wrote up on them. Hopefully by next year we can get that figure up to at least 40%.
The photographs on this website are all copyrighted, to the owner, so please ask permission from the owner if they are not taken by myself. Many Thanks to Lots for providing the bus route histories, and also to all the photographers that have granted permission to use there photographs. Please feel free to submit photographs but you must of taken them by yourself so you own the copyright.
A big Thank-You To The People Below:
