As crunch time moves ever closer over the future of the Muswell Hill to Swiss Cottage bus route, Lib Dem GLA member and local councillor Lynne Featherstone is calling on residents to put in writing their demand for a full service on the 603 route.

The trial service on the 603 Muswell Hill to Swiss Cottage bus route is nominally due to cometo an end in June, but Transport for London (TfL) have said that buses will continue until a review of the service takes place.

The next stage is crucial, says Lynne Featherstone, who is now asking local people for their help.

The review of the service is likely to be concluded in August or September and one of the factors to be taken into account is comments received by TfL’s customer services. As people often do not write to customer services, Cllr Featherstone is urging residents to write. She is gathering in comments to present to TfL’s customer services to ensure people’s views are fully represented when decisions are made.

Residents can show their support for the service by sending Cllr Featherstone their views, which she will pass on to Transport for London. Readers can send an email, including a full name, address and postcode, or write to FREEPOST LON1113, 100 Uplands Road, LONDON N8 9BR.

Lynne Featherstone comments:

“I hope as many people as possible will join us in our bid for a full service, now that the 603 trial period is coming to an end. We must keep up the pressure for an expansion of the 603.”
