This is good, fast from Woolwich/ Plumstead- good news for the Plumstead Radical drinkers, and those days when train services terminate at Plumstead (they still happen now and then i think). Any stops currently served by the 472 on the stretch after Plumstead will be served by other bus services so says the guidance i think.
Have they given a reason for why it won't stop between Charlton and Woolwich Elizabeth Line? Reckon it could do with at least 1 stop more in that stretch

There's still 3 routes serving all stops on that stretch.

Just feels strange that anyone living in that area (baring in mind they're building a huge amount of new builds between Charlton and Woolwich) are shunned from the shiny fast new bus taking them to commuter hotspots like North Greenwich and Woolwich, when there's multitude of stops after Plumstead. Reckon even just one more stop at Warspite Road or Prospect Vale would make sense
