Some of this work has already started and as part of this we need to make a number of permanent changes to where bus routes stop in and around Ealing Broadway and Haven Green. In March and April of this year we consulted on our proposed changes to bus stopping arrangements. The consultation ran from 21 March to 2 May. We are proposing to change stopping arrangements to the following bus routes in the area: 65, 112, 226, 297, E7, E8, E9, E10 and E11. The map below shows current stopping arrangements: Changes to the bus stop infrastructure • The bay on the east side of Haven Green currently used as the last stop for route 65 (stop B) will be removed • The two stops for buses going towards Boston Manor, Northfields or Hanger Lane (stops F and G) have been merged into one stop (F) • The two stops at the western end of the Haven Green diagonal road (stops Z3 and Z4) will be merged into one stop • The two stops at the northern end of Haven Green (stops X1 and A) will be merged into one stop Proposed changes to where bus routes stop • Table 1 shows the proposals with changes highlighted in red • Table 2 shows other stops in the area that will not be changing • Table 3 shows how the routes would be grouped together Table 1: Routes with changes Route Current Proposed Last stop First stop Last stop First stop 65 B F C C 112 X1 F A F 226 X1 C D D 297 X1 C A Z4 E7 A A X2 F E8 X1 F A F E9 X2 E A E E10 D D A Z4 N11 X1 F A F Table 2: Routes with no changes Route Current Proposed Last stop First stop Last stop First stop E1 (both D D D D directions) Route Current Proposed E2 E E (Greenford) E2 F F (Brentford) N7 (Russell F F Square) N7 E E (Northolt) Table 3: routes in each of the main stopping areas Bus stopping Service group Detailed arrangements Stops removed area ‘Northern’ Alighting point for routes Route E7 will set down at Stop X1 removed (stops A and X2) 112, 297, E7, E8, E9, stop X2. All other routes will E10. set down at stop A. ‘Centre’ Route 65 Route 65 will set down and (stop C) pick up here. ‘Diagonal road’ Services towards Routes 226 and E1 will set Stop Z3 removed (stops D, E and Greenford or Perivale down and pick up at stop D. Z4) Routes E2 (Greenford), E9 and N7 (Northolt) will serve stop E. Routes 297 and E10 will pick up at stop Z4. ‘Southern’ Services towards Boston Routes 112, E2 (Brentford), Stop G (already (stop F) Manor, Northfields or E7, E8, N7 (Russell removed) Hanger Lane Square) and N11 will serve stop F. Buses will stand between trips at stops C, X2, Z1/Z2 and Z4. This report contains details of the consultation and summarises the responses we received. We have also produced a separate document that specifically deals with issues raised in the consultation. 2 The consultation The consultation was designed to enable us to understand stakeholder and public opinion about our proposed changes to stopping arrangements in the Ealing Broadway area. The potential outcomes of the consultation are: • We decide the consultation raises no issues that should prevent us from proceeding with the scheme as originally planned. • We modify the scheme in response to issues raised in consultation • We abandon the scheme as a result of issues raised in the consultation. 2.1 Consultation objectives The objectives of the consultation were: • To give stakeholders and the public easy to understand information about the proposals and allow them to respond • To understand the level of support or opposition for the change • To understand any issues that might affect the proposal of which we were not previously aware • To understand concerns and objections • To allow respondents to make suggestions 2.2 Who we consulted The consultation intended to seek the views of the general public and stakeholders which included Ealing Council, London TravelWatch, Members of Parliament, Assembly Members, local interest groups and associations. A list of the stakeholders we consulted is shown in Appendix B and their responses are outlined in Section 4. 2.3 Consultation material, distribution and publicity The consultation was published online via our consultation tool. We explained the background to the proposal and asked for any comments that people may have. We sent an email to stakeholders and another email to registered Oyster card users of all the affected bus services. The email included a direct link to the online consultation. The email to registered Oyster users targeted 16, 971 customers. We also publicised the consultation in local bus stops. 3 Responses from members of the public We received 402 written responses from members of the public. 98 per cent (395) of the responses were online. 2 per cent (7) were received by email or post. Figure 3.1: How responses were received By post or email 2% Online 98% The consultation asked eight questions in total (5 general and 3 specific). Of the general questions we asked respondents for their name, email address, post code, and if they were responding on behalf of an organisation. We also asked respondents how they had heard about the consultation (see Figure 3.2).

Preface Preface The purpose of a Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) investigation is to improve railway safety by preventing future railway accidents or by mitigating their consequences. It is not the purpose of such an investigation to establish blame or liability. Accordingly, it is inappropriate that RAIB reports should be used to assign fault or blame, or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose. The RAIB’s findings are based on its own evaluation of the evidence that was available at the time of the investigation and are intended to explain what happened, and why, in a fair and unbiased manner.

  • TREC Section 4: Acton Town Station/Gunnersbury Park to Boston Manor Station (Optional Extension to Ealing Broadway)
    TREC Section 4: Acton Town Station/Gunnersbury Park to Boston Manor Station (optional extension to Ealing Broadway). Distance: 8.4 km (5.4 miles). Public Transport: Section 4 starts at Acton Town Underground Station (District and Piccadilly lines), finishing at Boston Manor Underground Station (Piccadilly Line). There is an optional exit en route at Brentford Station or an optional 3.7 km (2.3 miles) extension from Boston Manor to Ealing Broadway Station (using part of the TREC Section 1 route). Surface and Terrain: The first half of the route is along level paths, including through parks: Gunnersbury and Carville Hall Park South; however the section along the Thames Path and the River Brent/Grand Union Canal Walk does involve some steps (an alternative route avoiding the steps is suggested); the route eventually reaches Boston Manor Park and Station. Refreshments: Acton Town Station; Gunnersbury Park Café; Brentford High Street (near Brentford Lock); Boston Manor Park Café (seasonal), Boston Manor Station and shops nearby. Covid-19 restrictions: Check availability of refreshments and toilets before your walk. Public Toilets: Acton Town Station (charge); Gunnersbury Park; Boston Manor Park Café (seasonal). The route starts from south-west Acton, one of the seven towns of the London Borough of Ealing, Acton means "oak farm" or "farm by oak trees". This final section of TREC does stray into the north east of the London Borough of Hounslow going through parts of old Brentford, however as this was historically part of the Parish of Ealing when it did extend to the River Thames we think it’s appropriate to include in TREC.
