Lynne Featherstone, London Assembly Liberal Democrat transport spokesperson and Haringey councillor, today called on London Buses to make “an early decision” on the proposed Muswell Hill – Swiss Cottage bus route.

“Last week London Buses received the Faber Maunsell report on whether our proposed route is a runner,” said Ms Featherstone. “People in the area do not now need a delay of several months before London Buses make a decision, followed by another few months before a bus starts running.”

“The decision is not rocket science. If the report is favourable, and the costs acceptable, then we have to ask London Buses, if not now, when? This new route would make a step change in the quality of life for many people in the area.”
