Some good choices made there, although I'd imagine how devastated Unorm would be if you won the route 201. Let him have that one, or else he'll probably bid for the 269!  |

Well he has a closer garage to the 269 than me so I won't be surprised if he does win the 269 |

We have won routes 295 and 639/670 morning journeys and a batch of MMC hybrid demonstrators from QB. The 639/670 will use spare Enviro400Hs off the 19 and 22 as well as the MMC demonstrators while the 295 will use Volvo B5LHs.
The MMC demonstrators have been allocated internal fleetnumbers EDH506-EDH519.

Due to current circumstances the buses we have ordered haven't been delivered yet.
As a result, the 19, 22, 43, 295 and 639/670 will stay with their current operators until we have enough buses to operate the routes.

At the start of tomorrow morning, 31 EHs, 13 VHs and all 14 EDHs will have been delivered. This means we can start operating the 19, 295 and 639/670 from tomorrow.
5 EDHs will be out temporarily to cover for the undelivered VHs until those are delivered.
We have also proposed a new route 447 running from Rotherhithe to Beckton via North Greenwich and Canning Town.
If successful this route would be run from MW (Mandela Way) using 12m single deckers, the type being undecided. This would also leave MW near capacity.

Several more Enviro 400 Hybrids have arrived, there are now 61 buses delivered in total. The rest of this batch will be delivered over the weekend.
More Volvo B5L Hybrids have arrived today. All but five of this type have been delivered.

Two commercial routes, the 447 (Beckton - Canning Town - Blackheath - Rotherhithe) and 471 (Clapham Common - Streatham - Crystal Palace - Lewisham) have been approved.
The 447 will be run using long single deckers, most likely Mercedes Citaros while the 471 will use a mix of Dennis Tridents and Volvo B7TLs.
