A new Superloop route will be introduced between Walthamstow Central Bus Station and North Woolwich today (March 2).

Establishing the ten express routes aims to benefit outer London regions while providing "additional alternatives to private vehicle usage."

The entire Superloop route is scheduled to be fully operational by Spring 2024.
