Alexander Dennis has delivered 13 Enviro100EV single-deck buses to Go-Ahead London, a subsidiary of the Go-Ahead Group, for Transport for London (TfL) to operate on route 322.

Newly contracted by TfL to Go-Ahead London, Sydenham Garage took over the operation of the route in April, with the Enviro100EV next-generation buses running on a 15-minute frequency between Crystal Palace and Clapham Common.

The new buses are among a total of 60 Enviro100EV midibuses already operated by Go-Ahead London or soon to be added to the fleet.

In TfL specification, the bus has 21 seats plus further capacity for 24 standees, in compact dimensions of 8.5m length and 2.35m width.

Its Driventic VEDS driveline combines with large 354kWh batteries, and the original batteries can complete two consecutive seven-year contracts without replacement as part of the manufacturer’s 15-year battery warranty.

Go-Ahead London, the capital’s largest bus operator, now runs more than 1,000 zero-emission buses across its 2,500-strong fleet.

The 13 Enviro100EV are the first electric buses launched from Go-Ahead London’s new Sydenham Garage, which opened in September 2025.

Andy Edwards, Managing Director of Go-Ahead London, said, “Route 322 serves some of the busiest and most densely connected parts of south London, and these 13 Enviro100EV buses will deliver a genuinely better experience for the thousands of customers who rely on it every day.

“Having recently hit the milestone of 1,000 zero-emission buses in London, we’re looking forward to working in close partnership with Alexander Dennis to accelerate that transition further.

“Alongside the Mayor and Transport for London, we are committed to converting the capital’s bus fleet to zero emission, as part of our wider Group goal of a fully zero-emission fleet across Go-Ahead by 2035.”
