We are also totally opposed to fixed bus stops, since, if we really must have the 273 imposed on us, the hail & ride seems to work. Very recently, an earlier agreement between TFL & Lewisham Council – stating that no bus stops would be located outside residential properties – has been changed WITHOUT CONSULTATION with residents. We’ve not even been informed, only found out by accident. The upshot of that is that they are trying to build a bus stop right outside our homes (it affects 3 houses). Apart from the noise & pollution, we will have to put up with people just a few yards away peering into the front of our home, possibly chucking litter and so on.

I would now like to add an objection to a bus shelter. The numbers of people using the bus stop would not warrent it. It is not appropriate in this quiet residential street.
