Transport for London has suspended bus route 170 westbound between Battersea Church Road and Lombard Road.

The reason for the suspension is that the new fleet of buses introduced by TfL on this route exceed the height restriction at the Cremorne Railway Bridge on Lombard Road.

It is unacceptable that TfL have failed to consider the height restrictions of the railway bridge in introducing its new buses, and have now withdrawn the 170 service without notice.

Many local residents depend on this vital service, particularly during the winter months.

Accordingly, the undersigned hereby demand that Transport for London immediately reinstate the 170 bus service westbound along Battersea Church Road, Vicarage Crescent and Lombard Road.
