Eastcote Lane, NORTHOLT, UB5 5RJ

Once you drive into Eastcote Lane from Northolt there is one place to go, a school entrance just beyond the junction. Then the road crosses the Central Line railway and hits this barrier. There is absolutely no reason to drive along the road beyond the school as it is clearly signed no through road, but officially traffic can still drive beyond a hundred yards or so to this point, but there is no facility for turning round so would need to make a three point turn. Simply allowing access to the school and placing any restrictions beyond there would at least restrict the road in this direction to any functional use, as going beyond the school is a futile exercise as demonstrated here.

Only buses can cross this bridge over the railway

Composed of 1992 stock, bound for West Ruislip. The three electric tracks here are westbound on the right, eastbound on the left, and in the middle a reversing siding for trains terminating at Northolt. Beyond the cables on the left is a single Network Rail unelectrified track, plus another disused and much overgrown.

The school access is on the left, but the road continues over the rail bridge in the opposite direction only to be barred from going beyond by a bus lane although there is nothing else there besides the fenced sides of the bridge.

Rather than continuing along the main road Eastcote Lane (to the left) turns down a dead end (since the bus lane was introduced) while the remainder (to the right) is called Eastcote Lane North. Normally this would be a typical British method of naming roads, except this is not as the road to the right is due south of the others. I have no idea of the reason for this and sure the council won't either if asked.
