The bus build-outs on Earl’s Court Road are unpopular with local residents. Which TfL officer has made the decision to keep them and with whom should the Council best engage to discuss their removal?

Transport for London (TfL) undertook a consultation in August 2021 to understand public views of the bus build-outs on Earls Court Road and whether these should be made permanent. Following careful consideration of the consultation responses and the monitoring and analysis of traffic flow data, TfL decided to make the build-outs a permanent feature. This infrastructure helps support the bus network as well as providing more space for pedestrians. TfL’s Local Communities & Partnerships team is in regular contact with the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea and would be happy to discuss the build-outs at any time.
