Maybe because of the traffic problems on the M4?
There are alternatives to using the M4. The A4 is one option although
it may be busy. Other alternatives via the A40 / M40.

A40 M40 is no real option if the tailback was past J8/9 towards J10 and
J8/9 was chock a block


The other end of the A404 (I mean the M40 not Marylebone) is quite a
long way from that junction.

but the M4 was clogged to M4 J8/9 the 404 exit and the A4 was clogged
too so you could not get to the M40, whether its a long way or not makes
little difference, the coaches would have had to have flown to the M40
