Map & Bus Route Information eugeneeyecare.com | LWAC - London Marathon - London - 26 April 2009 lwac.org.uk | Bus 3 & 4 Routes :: OPA Ortho opaortho.com |
[edit] HistoryThe current route 26 dates back to 18 July 1992, and was introduced to replace the withdrawn section of route 6 between Aldwych and Hackney Wick, running between Hackney Wick Eastway and Waterloo, from Bow Bus Garage using Leyland Titans. The route was converted to low floor during 1999. The allocation was transferred to Stratford Garage in April 2001, and transferred again in February 2008 to a new garage in West Ham, on the closure of Straford Garage as part of the Olymipic construction. The route has stayed the same since it began, apart from minor reroutings in Shoreditch in 2002 and in Hackney in 2008. On 21 July 2005, would-be bomber Muktar Said Ibrahim attempted to explode a device contained in his rucksack on a number 26 bus on Hackney Road. Thankfully, the device failed to detonate.
