London Buses route 1 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, England. Running between Canada Water bus station and Hampstead Heath, it is operated by Go-Ahead London.
History
Route 1 was one of the first motorbus routes to be introduced in London. It was in operation by November 1908. By the time the London Passenger Transport Board took over its operations in 1933, it operated from Willesden garage to Lewisham. In June 1956, the Willesden to Marylebone station section was replaced by route 176.
Despite subsequent route changes, it continues to serve part of its original route, between Elephant & Castle and Aldwych.
On 3 October 2009, East Thames Buses was sold to Go-Ahead London, which included a five-year contract to operate route 1. London General commenced a further contract on 1 October 2016 with a peak vehicle requirement of 17 Wright Gemini 3 bodied Volvo B5LHs.
In November 2021 Transport for London launched a successful consultation with a view of merging routes 1 service between Hampstead Heath and Canada Water, as well as re-routing route 188 to serve its former terminus at Tottenham Court Road. These changes came into effect on 30 September 2023.
