Route 312 became the first route in London to be operated exclusively by electric buses, when Arriva London commenced a further contract on 5 September 2015 with Optare MetroCity EVs.[1][2][3][4][5]
On 2 March 2024, the route was extended from South Croydon to Purley via Brighton Road, partially replacing route 455 which was withdrawn on the same day.[6]
