Thank you for your request received by us on 4 June 2019 asking for information about toilet facilities for bus divers on various routes.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can confirm that we hold the information you require. You asked for:

Driver toilets on routes 3, 37, 196, 690 and N3

Please could you tell me the location(s) of toilet facilities for bus drivers on the following bus routes: 3, 37, 196, 690, and N3.

I can advise that we provide facilities at the terminus points of bus routes, with the exception of route 690, which is classified as a school route. School routes are usually very short in duration, of up to 13 stops in total for example. School routes tend to depart from garages, which of course have their own toilet facilities.

In some cases drivers from school routes go on to serve other routes, whereby using the facilities on that route accordingly.

Route Number                                                Terminus                                                                                                     Terminus
           3                                         Crystal Palace Bus Station – toilets available                                     Trafalgar Square – no toilets available
