Everything about London Buses Route 384 totally explained
London Buses route 384 is a
Transport for London contracted bus route in
London,
England. The service is currently contracted to
Metroline and serves the areas of
High Barnet,
New Barnet and
Cockfosters in north
London.
History
Route
384 began on 21 April 1990, largely running along previously unserved roads. The route starts at
Cockfosters Station, northern terminus of the
Piccadilly Line, then running via Mount Pleasant, territory previously quite a walk from a bus route. Buses then run through the shops and station at
New Barnet, before heading south again to serve the Lyonsdown and Barnet Vale areas and then climbing to High Barnet, where a new terminus was established at the rear of
The Spires shopping centre. A couple of
MCW Metroriders were drafted into Potters Bar garage to run the service.
The Metroriders were replaced by new MW class
Wright bodied Mercedes minibuses from April 1993. Contract renewal in July 1998 saw the route extended over the western leg of short route 385, via Wellhouse Lane and Whitings Road to Quinta Drive, and buses terminate by going round this triangle at the junction with Aitken Road.
The route connects each of several key destinations:
Barnet General Hospital, the Spires Shopping Centre (Barnet),
High Barnet tube station,
New Barnet railway station, Westbrook Crescent and
Cockfosters tube station. This route is very useful for residents of the areas around Quinta Drive, Alston Road/The Avenue, Westbrook Crescent and Mount Pleasant, who would otherwise have to walk a long distance to their nearest bus service.

hail and ride service along these sections of the route: (Cockfosters Road to Crescent Road; New Barnet railway station to Gloucester Road; Strafford Road to Wood Street; Barnet General Hospital
