On 25 September 1993, the contract for route 4 was won by London Suburban Bus, who operated the route with Leyland Titans.[2]

On 27 April 1995, route 4 was included in the sale of London Suburban Bus to Metroline[2] and in March 2000 to ComfortDelGro.[3]

In April 2019, Transport for London announced that route 4 would be withdrawn between Waterloo station and St Paul's station and extended to Blackfriars station via Queen Victoria Street instead, with the change taking effect in June of that year.[4]
