TfL Ref: FOI-1244-2122
Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 11th September 2021 asking for information about bus service changes.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy.
Specifically you asked:
“I request the most recent service change specification document for Route 180 concerning upcoming changes to the route.
I also request the tender specification for the Invitation to Tender from 2020 when Route 180 was retendered.”
I can confirm that we hold the information you require, which is provided in the documents attached. This includes the 2020 tender specification for route 180, which details the proposed changes in line with the opening of the Elizabeth Line. As the opening of the Elizabeth Line has been delayed, the new contract will start with the existing structure & routeing - so also find attached the previous tender specification with the small structural change “mini-specification”. These combined provide the current route structure and timebands.
If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.
Yours sincerely,
David Wells FOI Case Officer FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
