A bus route is not an organisation or person to have an official link. A timetable does not provide any information on how the subject sees itself. It is just a guide.Charles (talk) 10:18, 27 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Criteria required by WP:ELOFFICIAL is:
1) "The link content is controlled by the subject of the article" - is controlled by Transport for London, the organisation that controls the route, sets the timetable and engages the contractor who operates the service
2) "The linked content primarily covers the area for which the article of the subject is notable" - it is the timetable for the article's subject and provides backup for the Current Route section which otherwise is not supported Looloo18 (talk) 05:43, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
