Tower Transit is a Transport for London bus operator. It is a subsidiary of Transit Systems.
In June 2013, Transit Systems purchased First London's Atlas Road (Park Royal), Lea Interchange (Leyton) and Westbourne Park garages with 24 London bus routes and 412 buses. Also included were contracts to operate three routes (425, N550 and N551) that had yet to commence.
In October 2014, Tower Transit purchased the Impact Group which operates 130 small buses for local authorities and schools out of depots in Ealing and Croydon.
Tower Transit operates three bus garages.
As at May 2015, Park Royal garage operated routes 28, 31, 266, 328, N28 and N31.
On 1 October 2011 this garage opened when part of Westbourne Park garage was closed to make way for Crossrail construction works, with operation of routes 28, 31, 328, N28 and N31 transferred. Atlas Road operates as an outstation for Westbourne Park, so buses are seen on Atlas Road routes and vice versa.
As at June 2016, Lea Interchange garage operated routes 25, 30, 58, 69, 212, 236, 308, 339, 425, 444, 488, N26, N550, N551, RV1, W14, W15.
