History [ edit ]
On 21 July 2023, a consultation for route SL3 was opened by Transport for London , and closed on 4 September the same year. The route parallels part of route 301 between Thamesmead and Bexleyheath , and part of route 269 between Bexleyheath Shopping Centre and Bromley North station .[1] Route SL3 was awarded to Stagecoach London on 20 October.[2] TfL claimed that 67% of the feedback it received reflected that route SL3 would make their journeys more convenient, and 70% said the new route would reduce their travel time.[3]
Route SL3 was introduced on 24 February 2024, using New Routemasters .[4] [5] [2] It is operated by Stagecoach London .[6] [7]
After a competitive tendering process, the contract was retained by Stagecoach London from January 2025 with the New Routemasters to be replaced by brand new electric buses.[8]

Operation [ edit ]
