This change has, it seems, been brought forward a week - not sure why.

149 - Contract retained by Arriva London with 36 new 10.4m DB300/
Gemini double deckers. Allocation transferred to Tottenham garage, but
8 buses will be outstationed at Leeside Road garage. New timetable
with Monday to Friday peak hour frequency increased to every 5 minutes
with two additional journeys in each peak and Monday to Saturday
daytime frequency reduced to every 8 minutes.

P.S. Irrelevant aside - bendy or bendie, bendys or bendies, bendybus
or bendibus? ('Artic' counts as a smart alec answer!)

Bendie if they are female; Bendy if they are male.

To co-ordinate with a wide range of other contract changes like Arriva
taking on the 150 and 341 and the 78 having to move from Barking to
Ash Grove. The 149 moves to Tottenham Garage from Lea Valley. The new
buses for the 150 and 149 have been all over the place on other routes
over the last week or so.

I will miss the bendies on the 149 - also struck me that they were
ideal on this long, straight and very busy route. I wonder how long
the queues will be at London Bridge on Monday as people troop onto
their new double deckers via one door rather than pile in via 3 doors
as they will do this morning. I shall see what happens at Seven
Sisters on Monday morning.

Agreed. This is a daft policy. I live close by to the route and it's
ideal for Kingsland Road down to the City.

Wouldn't the plural be bendiborum?
