Greenwich Waterfront Transit - campaign against

wrote: A lot of people living here commute into Central London or Canary Wharf - and many of us want to use the JLE from N Greenwich. Sadly, that involves a local bus [244 or 380], then change to a high frequency service such as 422 or 472 either at Plumstead Garage or Woolwich town centre. All these routes are packed in the rush hour, including lots of mums with buggies who frequently ignore driver requests to fold - and trust me, 3 or 4 buggies on a bus which is already at capacity ain't pretty. Sometimes changing to the 422/472 means letting 2 or 3 full buses pass before you can board. The answer to our prayers is the Greenwich Waterfront Transit - with dedicated busways or bus lanes linking N Greenwich / Charlton / Woolwich / West Thamesmead and Thamesmead. So the solution to packed buses is... packed buses. Great. |
