Takes 3-4 years to get any bus changes done from consultation to reality, unlike ourselves of yesteryear or other places of today. Anyway, just an enthusiast who writes about London Buses in his own way. Join in on this ride.

The new decade.

The original 2-series single decks, are they still single deck? Exactly how many single deck routes can be double decked? Is it an efficient use of resources to do so? This title is pretty long isn't it? I've taken inspiration from light novels.
London's debatably deckable single deck bus population. Blood red city roads. |
Even if you aren't well versed in the numbering system you would've noticed how majority of routes in Central London are numbered below 100, with the predecessor being a short mutation of current 366 between Jenkins Lane and Barking, but via Gascoigne Road.
Either way, I explore, mind you with calculations that are invalid from the start due to different conditions (i.e not fair tests), to come up with the answer to questions on the line of: "Is it cost-effective to convert single deck routes to double deck?" With the mindset of "if it can take them [double decks], convert them." For now though...
