[Redone Route Visual] Route 166: West Croydon - Epsom Hospital

[@SCE10]

I love this. My childhood route, always used this to go to mayfield or banstead

[@greaterlondonbuses8100]

Great visual!

[@sespotter4367]

Nice! More routes should go around the Banstead/ Woodmanstrene area e.g 413.

[@southlondoner7169]

But why though?

[@nathanw9770]

Nice visual! Personally I think all journeys should go through to Epsom. Also it would be nice to see a DD do this route, perhaps DWs?

[@southerntransport466]

I kinda agree with you there

[@sespotter4367]

DDs can do the 166 but it happens very rarely but DWs do majority of the routes at TC so there might not be space for the 166 to use them all the time.

[@LondonTransportMaster]

Not all should go to Epsom though, since not many people use it often even on an hourly Epsom service. Its not needed

[@southlondontransport]

Nah because Woodmansterne has some narrow roads

[@LondonTransportMaster]

Doesn't really matter. ENLs are 10.2, as are E400s, so they would fit nonetheless. I'm sure there are other reasons as they would've done it by now if they could

[@HybridLondon]

Nice visual

[@southlondoner7169]

That diversion in Croydon Town Centre is permanent I think. Because one side of the high street has been converted to a bicycle path

[@customtransport2777]

Should all 166 services run to Epsom Hospital or should the whole route be curtailed only to Banstead?

[@DNTravels]

Personally I think all services should go to Epsom

[@LondonTransportMaster]

Yeah but isn't not really needed chs not a lot of people use it anyways, hence why it's hourly

[@LuperSoop69]

And also It might Help NHS workers to get to work at Epsom Hospital

[@SouthernTransportFan]

I was on a 166 to Epsom yesterday three times, only 2 or 3 other people usually use the bus after Banstead, however alot of people use it around coulsdon and chipstead valley

[@southlondontransport]

Well going from Epsom all the seats were taken
