| Harris buses had the contract for routes 132, 108 and 180 in this area.
However Harris ran into financial difficulties. London buses have, to protect
jobs and services, taken over running these services until they can be
put out to tender. The fleet have recently taken on a new look with an
all red East Thames Buses livery. While buses for use on service 132 were
being repainted some Dennis Darts were used.
