London Buses route 111 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, England, running between Heathrow Central bus station and Kingston.

History

Route 111 was converted to driver-only single-deck operation with AEC Swifts on 23 August 1969. It initially operated only between Cranford (weekday peaks and Sundays) or Hounslow Garage (weekday off-peaks and Saturdays) and Hanworth. At the same time a self-service system was introduced on routes 110 and 111, with passengers buying tickets from a machine.[2]

From 1 December 2007, route 111 was converted into a 24-hour service; before its introduction a number of residents in Hampton complained to the local newspaper and TfL, who named the alternative of more route 481 buses bypassing Hampton to the north-east.[3] Supporters of the extension in hours of operation included the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.[4]

Weekday peak hours service increased to every 8–9 minutes in 2010.[5]
