TfL introduces middle-door only boarding across the London bus network

Buses in London will temporarily become middle-door only boarding from Monday 20 April as part of Transport for London’s (TfL’s) efforts to help combat coronavirus. This change will further improve safety for bus drivers and critical workers as passengers will only be able to board using the centre doors of buses, enabling better social distancing while the city is fighting the virus.

• Following a successful trial, passengers will only be able to enter via the centre doors of buses from Monday
• Middle-door only boarding is one of a range of measures to keep drivers safe during the pandemic
• Bus drivers are playing a vital role in transporting critical workers during the national emergency and nobody else should be travelling
