For low frequency services, the report lists:

  • Chance of a bus departing On Time
  • Chance of a bus not running
  • Chance of a bus running early
  • Chance of a bus running late

TfL were also expected to provide updates on the performance of bus routes in Putney, and proposals for changes to bus services on Upper Richmond Road.
