RATP Dev London, which operates as London United, has won six new routes following competitive tender.

The new routes are:

– Route 105 (Heathrow Airport-Greenford), currently operated by Metroline. This route will transfer to RATP Dev London in June 2018.

RATP Dev London, operates under the London United brand

– Route 288 (Queensbury-Broadfield), currently operated by Arriva London. This route will transfer to RATP Dev London in September 2018.

– Route 303 (Edgware-Colindale), currently operated by Arriva London. Under the new contract, which begins in September 2018, this route will be merged with Route 305 (Edgware-Kingsbury) to form a single service.

– H12 (South Harrow-Stanmore), currently operated by Metroline. This route will transfer to RATP Dev London in September 2018.

– Route H18/19 (Harrow-Pinner circular service), currently operated by Arriva London. This route will transfer to RATP Dev London in September 2018.

– Route K3 (Esher-Roehampton Vale), currently operated by Abellio London. This route will transfer to RATP Dev London in June 2018.

The six routes represent an additional 56 buses worth of work for RATP Dev London.

As well as the new routes, RATP Dev London successfully retained five ‘home’ routes: 216 (Staines-Kingston); H14 (Hatch End-Northwick Park Hospital); H17 (Wembley-Harrow), which will convert to double-deck operation; K2 (Hook-Kingston) and the K4 (Mansfield Estate-Kingston Hospital).

New contracts for all the retained routes will begin in June 2018, with the exception of the H14 and H17, which start in September 2018.

Managing Director Fiona Taylor, said the contract wins are: “Extremely welcome news, particularly following the recent introduction of Route 18 (Sudbury-Euston), believed to be the fourth largest bus route in London and one of the busiest.

“We are delighted with our success in securing six new routes and retaining five existing routes. This is a really positive step in our plan for growth in the London market and we look forward to providing an excellent service on all these routes for the duration of the contract.”

andy burnham tfgm £15.6 billion (1) The funding announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves today (4 June) has been allocated to several combined mayoral authorities to use on rail, tram, road and bus infrastructure. Transport for Greater Manchester revealed today that part of the £2.5 billion it will receive will go towards making the Bee Network fully battery-electric by 2030. An as-yet undecided portion of that will support a planned investment in 1,000 new zero-emission buses over that period, the mayoral authority said. That is part of plans to build the UK's "first fully integrated, zero-emission public transport system", with trams and trains also set to benefit. Liverpool City Region's already announced BRT system is among the projects to which its £1.6 billion will be allocated. Under those plans - due for realisation by 2028 - a high-speed network will be served by articulated buses which are modelled on the 'Glider' in Belfast. It is due to link Liverpool city centre with John Lennon Airport, and Liverpool FC and Everton FC's respective stadia along three routes. Although the model of bus has not been confirmed, a Van Hool Exqui.City on loan from Belfast was last year used as a demonstrator. That 18m vehicle can accommodate around 30% more passengers than a typical bus and has three sets of double doors. The funding will also go towards buses elsewhere in the city as the region heads towards franchising services by 2027. Liverpool Mayor Steve Rotheram with a 'Glider' which was on loan from Belfast last year - an example of the sort of bus which could serve the new BRT Bus services in the East Midlands region will be boosted by the funding, thanks to the £2 billion handed to it today by the government. Some of that allocation will be used for a rapid transit network on the Trent Arc between Nottingham and Derby. Between the two cities, the Freeport, Infinity Park Investment Zone and Ratcliffe-on-Soar will also benefit from the improved bus services. South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority's newly announced commitment towards bus franchising has been boosted by £350 million in funding as part of that region's allocation. The funding for West Yorkshire will help build new bus stations in Bradford and Wakefield. Likewise, the Tees Valley Mayoral Authority will put its sum towards a new £15 million bus station in Middlesbrough. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says: "Today marks a watershed moment on our journey to improving transport across the North and Midlands – opening up access to jobs, growing the economy and driving up quality of life as we deliver our Plan for Change. "For too long, people in the North and Midlands have been locked out of the investment they deserve. With £15.6bn of government investment, we’re giving local leaders the means to drive cities, towns and communities forward, investing in Britain’s renewal so you and your family are better off."
