History

Essex bus routes 542/543 started on the 30th April 2007 to replace the 214/215/219/220 network.The Loughton/Debden circulars (214/215/219/220) started in the 1980s after some London Buses routes stopped serving some of the Loughton and Debden housing estates. The old 167 served Oakwood Hill which the 214/215 routes replaced. The route was originally operated by Wests Coaches of South Woodford. The contract then passed to Clintona Coaches of Brentwood. After that, it shortly contracted to Imperial Buses of Rainham. Today, the routes are contracted with Arriva Shires & Essex operating from Harlow garage. Arriva originally used Mercedes-Benz minibuses but settled to use Optare Solos.
