Temporary Route 588 13/07/13

Route 388 will be extended through the Olympic Park to Stratford City. However, the route cannot be extended immediately, so I went out to see that a temporary route called 588, running from Hackney Wick to Stratford City.

The driver accidentally went on the diversion route, but she went back on the proper route eventually.

I was speaking to the driver of this bus, and he said that I was his first passenger of the day, and he started at 7am! It was 11am when I covered it, so it wasn't well used!
