Compared with TfL's own figures

TfL's figures come from its own tracking equipment and its own timetable; mine are computed from the buses' public position feed. They are the same calculation on independent data, so they should broadly agree and move together rather than match exactly.
About this data
- Data collected, week ending 17 October 2026
- 100% of the week. This is the share of the week for which we hold bus location data at all, across the whole of London rather than for this route. A week under 60% is not published; under 90% it is marked as thin.
- Journeys observed
- towards Hammersmith Bus Station: 0 journeys tracked across no days
- towards Lonsdale Road: 0 journeys tracked across no days
- How it is measured
- Every day, 05:00–23:59. Waits are measured along the route at TfL's timing points, in each direction, against the timetable — not at the ends of the route, where a bus turned back early counts as if it had run. This route runs to a timetable, but we can't yet publish a reliable on-time figure for it, so it is measured by how long people waited, as a frequent route is. A day with less than four hours of data collected shows no daily figure. How these figures are made.
