Bus route consultation - 440 and 27/N27
There is a new consultation from TfL for bus routes 440 and 27/N27. The consultation runs until 12th August
Their overview is:
Last year we consulted on proposed changes to a number of bus routes in west London, as part of our plans for the Elizabeth line. Since then we have carried out further work to improve the bus network in the area.
We have now developed a new set of proposals for route 440 that would:
provide a new direct bus link between Gunnersbury, Acton and the planned Elizabeth line station at Acton Main Line
improve bus links into Chiswick Business Park from South Acton Estate
provide a direct link between stops at the northern end of Chiswick Business Park and Gunnersbury station
Our review of bus services serving inner west London also revealed a number of routes that were running with a lot of spare capacity (buses that are not full). We are therefore proposing the following changes to route 27:
make route 27 more reliable by terminating it at Hammersmith Grove, which will remove the least-used section of the route (between Hammersmith and Chiswick Business Park)
create a short new local link from King Street to Glenthorne Road and Hammersmith Grove
turn buses around at Hammersmith Bus Station, removing an under-used section of the route at night between the bus station and Hammersmith Grove (this truncated route would operate as the ‘N27’)
We are also proposing to extend route 440 from Stonebridge Park and Wembley via Harrow Road. Those proposals are being consulted on separately
