Default Buses on Exhibition Road

http://www.rbkc.gov.uk/Environmental..._roadintro.asp

On their Exhibition Road pages, RB Kensington & Chelsea claim that they
have persuaded TfL to provide bus services along Exhibition Road in the
future.

I always assumed that buses were never provided along Exhibition Road as
they would be unable to cope with the traffic - people exhausted from
walking around the museums might suddenly decide to plump for a bus if
they see one right outside.

The destination of the 360 is always advertised as "South Kensington
Museums" on its blinds, but in reality it travels up Queen's Gate and
terminates on Prince Consort Road outside Imperial College Union -
useful for the Albert Hall but not really for the museums. It doesn't
pick up on Prince Consort Road either, only from outside Imperial's
Huxley Building on Queen's Gate, and at the junction of Queen's Gate and
Cromwell Road (conceivably useful for the NHM but in reality as far away
as South Kensington station & bus stops).

Does anyone have any info or speculation on what buses might run along
Exhibition Road and how well that might work given the proposed plans?
http://www.alwaystouchout.com/project/110 might be useful as a bit of
shameless self-promotion.
