From Saturday 29 April there will be changes to bus route 350,  which runs between Heathrow Airport, Terminal 5 and Hayes, and bus route U5, which runs between Uxbridge and Hayes.  The changes allows TFL to match the capacity available to the demand for buses now and in the future.  TFL consulted on them in 2016.

• Will now run every 20 minutes during the daytime, every day, and every 30 minutes each evening (currently every 12 minutes Monday to Friday daytime, and every 20 minutes Saturday and Sunday daytime and each evening)
• More environmentally-friendly single-deck buses introduced (currently double-deck)
