[edit] History
The 118 commenced operation on 18 November 1936 as a daily service between Clapham Common and Mitcham Common (Horse & Groom). It was a "localisation" of route 5. This was part of a small route change scheme in which route 5 was withdrawn between Clapham Common and Mitcham, being re-routed to Raynes Park to replace route 67.
The average journey time is between 36 to 63 minutes. The frequency for Monday to Saturday is every 12 minutes, Sunday and evenings every 20 minutes.
