\u00a0For The Record<\/span><\/p>\n Central Way Morrisons (bottom left)<\/p><\/div>\n And so we move to a brand new Thamesmead service due to arrive very soon. It will be a limited stop express route and will be additional to any of the above. TfL have announced that parallel routes will not be changing.<\/p><\/div>\n Mike Harris even offered a picture of a very un-London livery …<\/p>\n … and Ian Armstrong provides a sample timetable.<\/p>\n It provided just four Monday to Friday peak hour, peak flow journeys taking one hour and twenty minutes.<\/p><\/div>\n There was a period of “consultation” when TfL provided a plethora of well designed maps. First there was the route itself …<\/p>\n … which runs as you would expect.<\/p>\n It is not clear from the map above …<\/p>\n … where, exactly, its terminus will be, but it does travel along Carlyle Road, straight down the middle and omitting the unusual Thamesmead loop.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n Indeed?<\/p><\/div>\n … and it does confirm that the new SL3 will terminate in Thamesmead “Town Centre” – which really isn’t.<\/p><\/div>\n … is in Glass Yard …<\/p>\n … hidden between the back door of the Leisure Centre (where they keep the bins?) and the river.<\/p>\n It is not very inviting!<\/p><\/div>\n
