I've been reading through the #consultation reports, and I'm amazed to see that a high proportion of young people in the 16–20 age group participated in the #Superloop X34/SL1 & X183/SL10 consultations.

#London Transport (LT) News (No. 8 - July 20 1973) clipping:
LT once proposed a Speedbus network of 10 express bus routes backed by extensive bus priority to encourage people to travel to Central London by bus.

Should #TfL reinstate the 50-year-old proposal with the #Superloop?

#TfL Press Release:
#Superloop route SL9 - formerly known as route X140 - launches on Saturday

• #London Bus Route X140 will be renumbered as the SL9 from Saturday 26 August
• Entire loop of the Superloop to be in service by Spring 2024 subject to consultation

I have taken part in the consultation for #Superloop routes SL3 and SL5, suggesting they should be proposed as one long route and referencing the old 726 Expresslink, which operated during the 1990s.

Consultations for SL2, SL3 & SL5 closes on 4 September.

Superloop, the new express bus service with its origins in the Green Line.

Also I geek out on Green Line bus history to learn that Superloop was first proposed in 1946.

I put together a #map of the @MayorofLondon's #Superloop express #bus plan superimposed on the @TfL Rail & #Tube map.

Seeing how outer boroughs have high-frequency express services into #London, but not between each other, highlights why this plan is so critical.

The logo looks a bit low effort tbh. #superloop

One of the biggest problems with the #superloop bus proposal is the lack of bus lanes in outer boroughs.
