Earlier, the police force had issued a statement saying that specialist officers were dealing with an unattended item found on board a bus in Hackney, northeast London, and cordons had been put in place while the item was assessed.
Police were called at 08:39 a.m. (0739 GMT) to deal with the item spotted on a number 271 bus on Holloway Road.
The British authorities consider the security threat level to be "severe", meaning that an attack is "highly likely".
