I know that the efficiency and reliability of local transport networks is incredibly important to residents, particularly since the expansion of the Ultra Low Emission Zone into Greater London.
Hillingdon residents, and others who use the network, might be interested to learn that TfL are currently consulting on proposals to reroute four bus services in the Borough. The proposals are as follows:
Proposal One
Merge U1 and U3 to create a new bus route from Ruislip to Heathrow.
Proposal Two
Reroute U2 in two areas:
a. Reroute U2 to West Drayton station to give new links to the Elizabeth line, it would no longer stop at Brunel University.
b. Serve Oak Farm Estate in North Hillingdon at all operational times, not just middays Mondays to Saturdays.
Proposal Three
a. Improve bus services in Ruislip by extending E7 from Ruislip West End Road to Bishop Ramsey High School/Highgrove leisure centre.
b. To simplify route through Ruislip town centre, the E7 would no longer stop at Ruislip station, Wood Lane, Ickenham Road or Pembroke Road.
The deadline for comments is Wednesday 20 December. If you would like to read more about the proposals and find out how to have your say, further information can be found here.
