Despite only launching the route about 18 months ago, TfL is already thinking about making changes to the 310 bus in north London.
The 310 was introduced in September 2024 as the first direct bus route between Golders Green and Stamford Hill station. It was created after Jewish communities campaigned for a new safe bus route to be provided in the area. The 310 currently runs through parts of Hackney, Barnet, Islington, Camden and Haringey with stops at Highgate Village, Whittington Hospital and Finsbury Park. When it was launched, London Mayor Sadiq Khan said it would help Jewish passengers feel safe amid rising antisemitism.
Now TfL is asking for feedback on the service as it is considering changing its route. The network has opened a consultation to make changes to the 310. TfL says re-routing the service from Stroud Green Road to instead travel through Holloway, Nag’s Head will ‘create new connections’ to Holloway Road so that more people could benefit from the new links. TfL added that it would also make journey times faster for ‘passengers already using the service between Stamford Hill and Golders Green’.
The transport authority said that making these changes will mean some passengers no longer have to change between buses and will also cut journey times. Extending operating hours into the evening will also mean people don’t have to change buses ‘in hours of darkness’. However, passengers wanting to using the route between Archway and Finsbury Park will no longer be able to take the 310.
TfL had previously already proposed adding a stop on the route’s end on Rockwood Road in Clapton and extending the operating hours to later in the evening; these changes will be implemented later this year.
The six-week consultation into the changes is now open until March 6. Londoners can take part by filling in an online survey here.
