You 
Transport for London would like to make it a 24 hour service, with buses running in both directions, every half hour, throughout the night.
Obviously this will benefit many people, as it will help night-shift workers to get home without having to drive, which should bring down the amount of night-time car noise and pollution. It will also help party-goers get home safely and should discourage people from drink driving.
However, the buses themselves could also cause more night-time noise and vibrations and some people on the route might be worried that their sleep could be disturbed.
Transport for London are currently consulting on the plans and I really think that local people’s concerns should be part of that. I believe that decisions are always best made at a local level, by the people who will be most closely affected.
So if you have any opinions on the scheme, positive or negative, please let me and I will pass them on to TfL. Their consultation finishes on 27 April 2007, so please get back to me before then – either by commenting below or by contacting me direct.

If my views count, as a Tottenham resident and Conservative (which I doubt), I fully support the idea. The W3 stops 500 yards from my front door and I often use it to go to the West of the Borough and friends vice-versa. If you want more people to use public transport, then you need to support good, cheap and relaible public transport that is available throughout the day (i.e. 24 hrs!).
I had always wondered if you were really “the” Justin Hinchcliffe, because so many of your comments are so rude and read like they are written by someone who’s a bit drunk that I had half-thought you were a Lib Dem or Labour stooge trying to discredit the Conservative party!!I can’t imagine Im alone in becoming less likely to vote Conservative every time I read something that has your name on it?
go and read his blog. he is really a tory..your right that he is a bit of a disaster for the tories partyi am sure all the other parties must love him and his constant reminders that the tories are the nasty party
If I could return to the question – I am all for 24 hour running of the W3. I used to live on the route it takes, so I understand the downsides, but the benefits are much greater.
Yes, yes, yes. This would represent a great improvement to the area’s public transport from my perspective.
I live on the W3 route, on Priory Road, and would be against the idea of it running for 24 hours for purely selfish reasons. The noise and vibration levels from passing buses are considerable, and it’s always a welcome respite when the buses stop running.I can understand the potential benefits for shiftworkers and party-goers, but I suspect many of the buses running would be virtually empty so am dubious as to the environmental benefits.
I stick to the thread and talk about buses, you indulge in nasty personal attacks on me. Unbelievable!
I also live on Priory Road and would be fully in favour of the W3 running 24 hours as I often get back to London late at night and find the only way to get home quickly is walking through Alexandra Park – not the safest place in the world for an unaccompanied female.
Oooooh get you Justin! With all the nasty comments you make about other people it sounds to me like dishing it out but really don’t like being on the receiving end of any problems.
I’m for it, but would like to see a whole-sale change to the route first.The frequency for those living further down the route (I’m mountview Road) is abismal.I’d like to see a shortend frequent service (alongside the existing service), running single deckers between Ally Pally during peak times. These buses could then be put to use as night busses, as they’re quieter and have a lower env impact.
can you find out for me when we getting new w3 buses if you don’t and also i need all the info for spencer so i know that when we get new buses on thankyou and hope you reply to this thankyou
