We would like your feedback on our proposals to permanently withdraw school bus route 673.
The consultation period has now closed. You can find updates on the scheme in the 'Latest news' section.
Proposals
We are proposing to permanently withdraw the school bus route 673. It currently makes one journey in the afternoon from Pemberton Gardens in Chadwell Heath to Beckton Bus Station, primarily serving The Warren School. It also passes Robert Clack and All Saints Catholic Schools.
If you currently use the 673, you will have to walk approximately 630 metres to Chadwell Heath High Road (Stop R) for route 173 to complete your journey
Alternatively, you can use bus route 62 (every 10-12 minutes) or 362 (every 30 minutes) and change along Chadwell Heath High Road for route 173 to complete your journey
We have carried out an Equality Impact Assessment for the bus service changes
While there will be some disbenefit to users of the 673, this is outweighed by the benefit to users of the 173, through more consistent journey times on the 173
Further, as there is no morning service of the 673, we are not asking any users of the 673 to do anything they do not already do in the mornings

Connecting with London's deaf community on our consultations
To further enhance how we consult with London's deaf community we offer:
British Sign Language (BSL) videos of our proposals and survey
A BSL conversation service. This allows the TfL consultation lead to have a two-way BSL translated discussion with a BSL user. To request a BSL conversation please contact us at haveyoursay@tfl.gov.uk and we will be in contact to arrange a convenient time
You can reply by completing our survey, which should take no more than 10 minutes to complete or if you are short on time, you can submit a quick response.
The closing date for comments is Monday 7 July 2025.
