Dear Neighbour,

Chalk Farm Morrisons Redevelopment – local bus route and stop changes

As a result of the works to redevelop Morrisons at Chalk Farm, from July 2021 Tfl will need to make a number of changes to bus routes and stops in the local area.

With the development moving into the next stage of construction, the access to the terminating bus stands at the Morrisons main site for routes 27, N27 and 393 will be removed for 18 months.

Routes 27 and N27

The end stop for routes 27 and N27 will now be at stop CQ on Chalk Farm Road (which is currently the second to last stop).

From stop CQ, buses will then travel, out of service, to a new temporary bus stand on Ferdinand Street. They will then travel out of service via Malden Crescent, Prince of Wales Road, Haverstock Hill to the new first stop on Chalk Farm Road.

The new bus relocation move will commence as follows:

  • 27/N27 Service: Saturday 17th July

Temporary bus stand on Ferdinand Street

A temporary stand will be designated on Ferdinand Street adjacent to the Tottenhall residential block until the end of July 2021. Then from the beginning of August 2021 until January 2023, the temporary stand will move further along Ferdinand Street adjacent to existing stop KS. A temporary toilet facility for bus drivers only will also be installed.

The map below shows the route the bus will take from stop CQ to the temporary stand on Ferdinand Street. Please note that between stop CQ and the new stop on Chalk Farm Road buses will be out of service.

Route 393

Route 393 will continue to serve stop CD on Chalk Farm Road. This will be followed by a new stop on Chalk Farm Road opposite the temporary Morrisons store where the route will end. Buses will then travel, out of service, to a new temporary stand on the site access road outside the Stables Market and opposite the temporary Morrisons store. Buses will then use the roundabout to turn around and travel to the first stop at stop CF on Chalk Farm Road.

The new bus relocation move will commence as follows:

  • 393 Service: Saturday 24th July

The map below shows the route the bus will take.

Post January 2023

After 18 months, in early 2023, both bus services will return to the Morrisons site to new bus stands will be provided. However, passengers will continue to utilise bus stops on Chalk Farm Road as described above until Spring 2025 when the new Morrisons store opens. Further updates on precise timings will provided by TfL closer to the time.
