Fictional: ˣ59: Central London to Central Croydon, express
An every 8 minute service would require a PVR of 19 roughly, which can easily be sourced from trimming only the peak frequencies of 133, 159 and 250, and reducing it a notch for 59 and 109.
Speed at the cost of frequency for stops not served.
I like drawing out stuff so decided to copy the old style of maps for individual routes.
Fictional: Operation Shorten G1 Improvement
Self explanatory.
The reason, I've already tackled changing G1 in my Lambeth/Southwark review of 2021.
For 2023 I came up with an alternative.
Idea spawned from diverted G1s whereby some were diverted via St George's but some direct via Garratt Lane due to an accident.
Fictional: If Streatham and Bromley had a direct bus link
The last 'large-scale' route I've done was an Elephant to Stratford link which happened under the guise of 388, and is cut once again. I numbered it 433. Now, with no number, I stumbled upon the Streatham to Bromley link.
Most of my comments are on the picture itself so here's the real postscript: I forgot to add in the A205 has a right-turn ban at West Dulwich, though can be modified to allow this.
Upon looking at the map; at Tulse Hill right above Lancaster Avenue, the route could go left onto Leigham Vale which links with Leigham Court Road.
