The man had been sat at the back of the lower deck but followed them upstairs when they boarded at the One New Change bus stop. He then exposed himself and began masturbating in front of them, City of London police said.
He got off the bus around 20 minutes later on Bethnal Green Road in east London..
The suspect is described as white, medium build, approximately 25-30 years old and was wearing a light blue bomber jacket with ‘LA’ written in red on the left breast.
