The A & E Unit at Northwick Park Hospital is due to be operational soon and the transport links need to be improved. It is imperative that bus routes 204 and 395, which currently terminate at Sudbury and Harrow on the Hill are extended to North Wick Park Hospital. This has been vigorously pursued by local communities and stakeholders in Brent and Harrow. On behalf of the affected groups I seek your urgent intervention for the extension of these routes. Are you willing to help?
