W12 and W14 Bus Service in North-east London
The petition of residents of the constituency of Leyton and Wanstead,
Declares that recent changes to the W12 and W14 bus service in north-east London have had negative impacts which must be addressed.
The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to encourage Transport for London to immediately reconsider the changes made to ensure that the negative impacts caused by these changes to the W12 and W14 bus service in north-east London are addressed urgently.
And the petitioners remain, etc.—[Presented by Mr Calvin Bailey , Official Report, 21 January 2025; Vol. 760, c. 978.]

Observations from the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Transport (Simon Lightwood):
Transport in London is devolved and is the responsibility of the Mayor of London and Transport for London. TfL conducted a public consultation on proposed changes to bus routes for the W12, W13, W14 and 549, which concluded in July 2023. Feedback received from members of the public and other stakeholders informed its decision to implement these proposals. The bus network and operations are under constant review and TfL monitor these changes in collaboration with local stakeholders.
The Government will continue to engage with TfL on a range of issues. However, the operation of TfL London bus services is a matter solely for TfL.
