London Buses route 133 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, England, running between Streatham and Liverpool Street stations.

History

In September 2009, Arriva London was awarded the contract to route 133, commencing in January the following year and operating from the Brixton garage.[2] The route has since been transferred to the Norwood garage.[3]

In November 2010, the route was criticised for running empty between Streatham and the bus garage, a section of route over which some residents had previously campaigned for more frequent services.[4]

On 6 October 2012, the new Streatham Bus Station was opened near to the old Streatham Garage and became the new southern terminus for Route 133.[5]

Current route

Route 133 operates via these primary locations[6]
