London Buses route 1 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, England. Running between Canada Water and Tottenham Court Road station, it is operated by London Central.

History

AEC Routemaster on The Strand in June 1981

Route 1 was one of the first motorbus routes to be introduced in London. It was in operation by November 1908. By the time the London Passenger Transport Board took over its operations in 1933, it operated from Willesden garage to Lewisham. In June 1956, the Willesden to Marylebone station section was replaced by route 176.

Despite subsequent route changes, it continues to serve part of its original route, between Elephant & Castle and Aldwych.

On 3 October 2009, East Thames Buses was sold to London General, which included a five-year contract to operate route 1. London General commenced a further contract on 1 October 2016. It is operated out of Morden Wharf garage with a peak vehicle requirement of 17 Wright Gemini 3 buses.
