Route 38: "New Bus for London" journeys

Hackney - Dalston - Islington - Holborn - Piccadilly Circus - Victoria

This timetable only shows journeys operated by the "New Bus for London" (NBfL). The journeys operate subject to vehicle availability and it is unclear how rigorously it is followed in practice. The main service, operated by conventional double deckers, operates much more frequently between Clapton and Victoria.
