This Council welcomes Transport
for London’s consultation on the proposed SL15 Superloop route from Eltham to Clapham Junction but
believes that the SL15 route should be amended:
 

To include a stop at
Mottingham Station in both directions, adding only approximately
10-15 minutes to the service depending on the time of day in normal
traffic conditions, and bringing a much-needed additional
north-south bus link for communities in the very south of Greenwich
borough
To extend the service
north beyond Eltham Station to Woolwich, to help bring the economic
and amenity benefits of the Elizabeth Line to residents in the
south of the borough

 
Council notes that in the wake
of the non-delivery of the promised Eltham-to-Beckton bus route
through the Silvertown Tunnel, optimising this proposed SL15 route
may be the only significant opportunity we have to influence
Transport for London to improve north-south bus links in our
borough in the near future.
 
Council therefore resolves to
continue to use every available means, in line with its
consultation response submitted in November, to lobby Transport for
London and the Mayor of London to add Mottingham and Woolwich to
the SL15 route - and to invest in further improvements in
north-south bus routes over the medium and long term in addition to
this.
