Go-Ahead London has just been awarded routes 184, 469, 484 & B12 to start between January and March next year. Routes 184 & 484 will gain new electric single-deckers, while route 469 & B12 are rumoured to be gaining Enviro 200-MMCs coming off lease from Abellio route C10 as it is due to receive new electric buses shortly.
RE: London Bus Operations - Michael - 17 Jul 2020
With all the latest contract changes, what buses have come from the Go Ahead losses - if there has been any.

Disposal doesn't necessarily mean they're done and dusted - good chance they've been let free due to contract changes and will pass to another operator

(03 Aug 2021, 10:05 pm)Michael Ah right!There is a PVR reduction on the 55 which has released 3 LTs, which unfortunately are being transferred to RATP Hounslow to commence the removal of the SP Scania from Hounslow.

(07 Aug 2021, 2:49 pm)Metroline1511 These are currently tipped to be converting route 111 but this will then receive new electric buses when their tender with Abellio starts next year.Yes there is a cascade of the SPs from the 111 to make VHs and ADHs available for the takeover of the 49 & X140 on 4th September as the electric buses won't be able to run on the routes from day one for various reasons. However with the timeliness of electric buses starting operating on routes when they should do, I can imagine that the LTs will transfer to Abellio for a few months until the electric buses are ready to be actually used?
