Best route from Heathrow to Hendon

You've got one escalator to get up from the low level concourse to the bus station at Heathrow and level transfer at Harrow Bus Station. http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/gettingaro...arrow-2118.pdf The 140 is a busy service and takes an hour to Harrow. *Frequency is every 8 minutes. Departs bus stop 19 at Heathrow Central Bus Station. Arrives stop A at Harrow. http://www.londonbusroutes.net/times/140.htm The 183 is also pretty busy and takes 45 mins to Hendon. Frequency every 12 minutes. Departs stop E at Harrow Bus Station. http://www.londonbusroutes.net/times/140.htm It'll take an hour on the tube to Central London and probably 40 mins or so on the Northern Line so are you really any further forward going that way? * Obviously the bus might get delayed so there's a risk there but I assume getting *from* the airport is less time critical than a return journey would be. Not that I'm against going by bus - not at all in fact, I'm all in for taking the unconventional route (see my reply to David) - but I think that estimate of a tube journey time is a bit over the top... Journey Planner has it taking around an hour and a quarter - the scheduled time on the Picc to Leicester Sq is 50 mins from Heathrow Central, then on the Northern to Golders Green it's just over 20 minutes. |
