The new garage site at Charlton, Bramshot Avenue has been bought by New World Holdings, trading as New Citybus. This is notable as Citybus (part of NWH) itself had a venture into London as Capital Citybus.

Upon request, Route E3 will get a school variant (called E3D) starting from Gunnersbury School/Brentford, running via The Ride, Boston Manor Road, Swycombe Avenue and Windmill Road to normal line of route up to Chiswick, Barrowgate Road.

* Route C2 will be diverted via Regent Street to Piccadilly Circus. The route will terminate at Piccadilly Circus, due to increasing concerns about stand space at Victoria, and the routes 8 and 25 already providing a very frequent service though the current C2 route between Oxford Circus and Victoria.
