How busy is route 304?

2.35m passenger journeys were recorded on route 304 in 2024/25 across 518,817 kilometres operated. That is down from a peak of 2.52m in 2023/24.

2022/23: 2,042,974 journeys 2.0 22 2023/24: 2,520,298 journeys (53-week year) 2.5 23 53w 2024/25: 2,351,221 journeys 2.4 24

Millions of passenger journeys per financial year, from Transport for London's published bus statistics. A passenger journey is one boarding of one bus — someone commuting five days a week makes ten of them, so this is not a count of people. Years marked 53w ran 53 weeks rather than 52, so they sit about 2% high against their neighbours. Route-level totals do not sum to TfL's network figures, which carry separate adjustments.
