Todays video is a visual on route 474 which was rerouted to go via custom house and Prince regent on the 21st May. Tbh I’m not too happy with this change because it’s not that useful. I don’t get why TFL are changing all these routes just for Crossrail. A few isn’t that bad but so many unnecessary ones happened. Im going to miss the 474 going via Silvertown and Thames Barrier, that was my fave section on the 474 before. The visual itself came out alright and im quite pleased.
