"Replacing the 472 with this faster, more direct service will help to support early regeneration plans in Thamesmead and boost transport links in a historically under-served part of London, Khan added. "I'm also excited to say that TfL will be offering a week of free travel on the new Superloop service, so from 24 January to 30 January Londoners can give the SL11 a go and see for themselves how choosing this quicker bus can transform their everyday journeys.""
"It will go into service for the first time on Saturday following a consultation to extend the DLR from Gallions Reach to Beckton Riverside and Thamesmead, which Transport for London (TfL) said received strong support. The SL11 replaces the daytime service on route 472 and will run more frequently, with buses every six minutes during the day on weekdays and Saturdays. A new night service, N472, will also operate overnight every 30 minutes."

The SL11 connects North Greenwich to Abbey Wood via Thamesmead and Woolwich and aims to boost transport links and support early regeneration plans in Thamesmead. TfL will offer free travel on SL11 from 24 to 30 January.
