Route 453


Stagecoach 17102. V102 MEV. route 453 outside New Cross Garage. a temporary stop is in place here as there is road works at the normal stops a little further on. The 453 was to be introduced with articulated buses on 15 February 2003, but due to late delivery of the buses, this is to take place on 17 March instead. The route was started on time using conventional double deckers.

TA 162. V162 MEV. heads a line of Stagecoach buses on route 453 (six in all) in Jerrard Street, Lewisham. The terminus for the 453 is Deptford, DLR station, but due to the bus station not yet being built the buses run empty to Lewisham to stand here. The road would have been pretty full if they had been artics.
