The current route dates back to 18 July 1992, and was introduced to replace the withdrawn section of route 6 between Aldwych and Hackney Wick.
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.
