Fastbus was a proposed orbital, limited-stop bus service in North-West London.[1]
It is proposed to run between Wembley Park station and North Acton station.
Proposal[edit]
The scheme is promoted by the business group Park Royal Partnership and supported by the London Borough of Brent and London Borough of Ealing. Fastbus stops might be located at:
- Wembley Park station
- Wembley Arena
- Wembley Stadium
- Wembley Triangle
- Stonebridge Park station
- Grand Union (where Abbey Road, Park Royal crosses the Grand Union Canal)
- Park Royal station (on Coronation Road, Park Royal. New Central line platforms have been proposed at this station)
- Central Middlesex Hospital / Asda Park Royal
- North Acton tube station
with possible extension to Acton Main Line station.
A new road in Park Royal, near the Diageo 'First Central' business park, has been built with bus lanes, in anticipation of the new service. As of mid-2009, there has been no support for the proposal by Transport for London.
