[silk coyote]

deadass looks like something from london & east or croydon when i look again

doesn’t look like theres any staff parking

[silk coyote]

apparently they have cycle facilities

[formal wasp]

i was js thinking that

looks like they maxxed out space

[silk coyote]

they mention ev vehicle chargers but that might just be for the buses

[formal wasp]

but forgot the staff

[kind birch]

that is the buses

[ivory rock]

Kill MG

[ivory rock]

It can be killed tho

[jade ridge]

no it cant

that garage is fully electric

[ivory rock]

Send 401 and 99 there and put the last MG diesel routes at BX

[jade ridge]

99 is better off being at BX

[sour pebble]

i forgot how big is MG

[kind birch]

near enough the same size as this

[jade ridge]

bigger than that thamesmead depot

[kind birch]

bit larger

yh

[formal wasp]

291

[sour pebble]

[jade ridge]

[formal wasp]

[kind birch]

469 and 386 arent big tbf

[formal wasp]

[kind birch]

[kind birch]

not now

[ivory rock]

How many buses is 51, 178, 244 and 291 even in total

[kind birch]

still got another 3 years in current contract

[jade ridge]

no more than 50 surely

[ivory rock]

Yh can definitely see more routes shifted there then

[kind birch]

469 keeping its buses till 2028 and 386 i think till 2027

[ivory rock]

Especially if they build bare chargers

[jade ridge]

icl GAL IS GOING TO CONQUER

thamesmead

[formal wasp]

that’s what i’m thinking

[ivory rock]

177

[formal wasp]

they’re gna start taking from stagecoach

[jade ridge]

maybe not 229 and 301

but whatevers left

theyre taking

[kind birch]

not 53 either

[sour pebble]

51

roughly

[kind birch]

ok that dont go thamesmead ncm

nvm

[ivory rock]

This is dark

Worst scenario for Stagecoach

[sour pebble]

idk stagecoach have put up a good fight

[ivory rock]

No wonder GAL bidded for 96 229 301 etc

Bare space

[long yarrow]

Tbf

Now it makes sense why they are not bidding 286

[long yarrow]

Bidding doesn’t automatically mean they have space

[jade ridge]

cus they dont want ferry vans

furthermore those lites can surely go on for another 3 years

[tardy oasis]

the building looks a bit like henley road garage

[rugged oxide]

Ngl they’re gonna struggle to find drivers

Coz who would go there when there’s no parking available lol

Drivers care about parking

[lavish furnace]

244 deckers
new garage
DLR confirmed

what a week 😍

[silk coyote]

yeah but no electroliners on the 22 yet
