It was the construction of
the M1 across Mill Hill Broadway, parallel to the railway, that
resulted in the low rail bridge being remodelled and the bus
station being rebuilt underneath the motorway. During the
works in 1966, RF383 runs a
240A to Mill Hill East.
From early beginnings when Edgware was out in the country (see
the history of route
142), the bus
network grew rapidly between the wars as the area
developed. By 1935, present day routes
113,
142,
240 and
251
were largely in place. The
221 and
292 were introduced in the early
1960s when the trolleybuses were replaced. Many of the
routes we will operate on 29 August, which reflect the 1960s
pattern, are therefore still familiar today. Local passengers
should note that there will be some detailed differences from
present day routes - conductors on our buses will assist in these
cases.
The following services are planned for operation, generally
between about 10.30 am and 5 pm. Some journeys will run
over sections of the route only, please refer to the destination
shown on the front of the bus.
A map showing the routes is here. Departure times from key north
London locations are here. Details
