Thamesmead’s £23 million rapid bus service set for public consultation in early 2025

Plans for a rapid bus network linking Thamesmead in southeast London to its nearest railway stations are likely to be put out for public consultation early next year.
The proposed route would run between Woolwich town centre and Abbey Wood via Thamesmead, offering quicker access for the public-transport poor area to the two local Elizabeth line stations and easier options to connect with the DLR and national rail services.
