A new Superloop express bus route linking Abbey Wood and North Greenwich launched at the weekend, with passengers able to travel for free during its first week.

The new express route launched on Saturday, replacing the 472 bus.

The SL11 service will run as a limited-stop route via Thamesmead and Woolwich to cut journey times and improve connections to the Elizabeth line, DLR and London Underground.

Transport for London (TfL) said pay-as-you-go customers would not be charged on the route between 24 and 30 January, although passengers must still touch in with an Oyster or contactless card.

The SL11 replaces the daytime route 472 and will run more frequently, with buses every six minutes during the day on weekdays and Saturdays.

A new night service, N472, will also operate overnight every 30 minutes.
