Officers from the Metropolitan Police were alerted to the crash in Streatham Hill A23 at around 1.20pm today (December 14).

The cyclist, a male, was found injured at the scene and was taken to hospital in a critical condition.

The driver of the bus stopped at the scene and there have been no arrests.

Enquiries into the circumstances surrounding the crash continue.

Road closures remain in place in the road headed northbound.

Transport for London (TfL) has confirmed that it is pressing ahead with planned changes to routes 45 and 59 despite widespread concern from local people in a consultation.

Route 45 currently runs between Elephant & Castle and Clapham via Camberwell and Brixton.

But its timetable will now be amended during February next year so that it instead travels between Camberwell and Morden.

The changes have been proposed so that the route can replace the 118 between Brixton and Morden, which will be scrapped at the same time.

Transport for London (TfL) has confirmed that the 118 bus route, which runs from Morden to Brixton, will be withdrawn from February 2025.

The decision follows a public consultation held between September 2 and October 13, 2024, which proposed changes to bus routes 45, 59, and 118.

TfL consultation report states: “The proposals aimed to simplify the bus network between Streatham, Brixton and Camberwell”.

During the consultation, TfL asked: "How would the proposed changes to routes 45, 59, and 118 impact you?”

Martyn Blake, 40, stood trial at the Old Bailey after shooting the 24-year-old through the front windscreen of an Audi Q8 in Streatham on September 5, 2022.

The jury deliberated for some three hours on Monday to clear Mr Blake who appeared to be briefly overcome with emotion as the verdict was returned.

He breathed out, puffed his cheeks and turned away in an apparent show of relief.

The family of Mr Kaba, who sat in the well of the court, sat in stony silence and made no immediate reaction.

Metropolitan Police firearms officer Martyn Blake, 40, fatally shot the 24-year-old through the windscreen of an Audi Q8 in Streatham, south London, on September 5 2022.

Hemmed in by marked and unmarked police cars, Mr Kaba drove the Audi backwards and forwards in an attempt to escape, the Old Bailey has heard.

The car had been used as a getaway vehicle in a shooting in nearby Brixton the night before, and was followed when a police officer recognised the number plate.

Officers did not know who was driving the car at the time.
