London Buses route 30

London Buses route 30 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, United Kingdom. The service is currently contracted to East London.

History
Route 30 commenced operation on 8 May 1911 Between Kings Cross and Fulham Cross. Some of this routing is still covered today by the 30, as well as by related routes 74 and 430.

During the war years the buses used on this route were the earlier batch of pre war RT's and operated from Hackney Wick to Roehampton through Graham Road,Hackney, Dalston Junction, St. Pauls Road, Islington and eventually through Putney to Roehampton.

The 30 was involved in the 7 July 2005 London bombings, when a bus on this route, which had been diverted due to other incidents, was blown-up by Hasib Hussain, killing himself and 13 passengers.

The bus destroyed was replaced by the first Alexander Dennis/Enviro 400 produced, named Spirit of London to symbolise the courage of Londoners.
