Note: This is no longer the current timetable
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. Buses are operated by a two person crew unless otherwise stated.
