Summary

London’s bus network is about to get a major overhaul as TfL pushes ahead with route cuts and reshuffles — even despite fierce public backlash. Routes 19 and 38 are being shortened, with 19 ending at Victoria and 38 terminating in Holborn, while a new route 10 takes over key connections. Over 1,600 residents voiced concerns, especially about losing direct links and impacting vulnerable communities. TfL claims the changes boost efficiency, but locals fear reduced convenience and accessibility — especially in Hackney. Minor tweaks like extending the N38 night bus offer some relief, but the big changes are set to launch in November 2026.
