220 and 487 Curtailments (27/03/13)

ADE60 on route 220. Back in the days when it went to Willesden Junction.

Due to Station Approach being closed for re-development plans, routes 220 and 487 are currently withdrawn between Harlesden, Jubilee Clock and Willesden Junction Station until 31st May 2013.

Route 220 will start and end journeys at "Park Parade". Blinds and the iBus on 220 says "220 to Harlesden, Jubilee Clock". Buses will turn onto Tavistock Road and to Park Parade again where the route will stand. 

Route 487 will start and end journeys slightly closer to Willesden Junction Station. The route will start journeys at "Acton Lane" and end journeys at "Harlesden Jubilee Clock". The buses, as it is operated by First, can go inside the Willesden Junction (WJ) depot to turn around, which is by the two bus stops. Blinds however on the 487 still say "Willesden Junction".

Here shows the observation below:

YX09 AFF on route 487 at Gypsy Corner. Really, the blinds should display - "Harlesden, Jubilee Clock".

YX62 BUA ADE70 on route 220 at"Westway" for BBC Centre*, to Harlesden, Jubilee Clock.

*Off topic to buses, but BBC Centre is closing down in 2014 and are selling the site to Imperial College. BBC will move to "Media City" as known as the BBC's Salford centre in Manchester, a fact for the day.

That's the end of this observation of curtailments post. I hope you've enjoyed it and remember to stay safe!
