Category:Surrey bus route 451

English: Route 451: Staines, Thorpe Park theme park, Chertsey, Addlestone, New Haw, Brooklands Tesco/M&S, Byfleet, Manor Farm Estate, Weybridge railway station, Weybridge, Walton, Field Common Estate, West Molesey, Hurst Road, Hampton Court railway station (Surrey), Hampton Court, Kingston (Greater London).

As part of Phase 1 of Surrey County Council's Bus Review, route 451 was withdrawn. The long, complex and tortuous route the 451 took was considered too expensive to run. The common section of route shared with route 461 between Kingston and Walton was replaced by the doubling of the frequency of route 461 to every 30 minutes. Heath Road, served between Weybridge and Weybridge railway station, was replaced by the extension of route 436 to Weybridge. The service from Brooklands Tesco/M&S, Manor Farm Estate and Byfleet was replaced by new route 51, which maintained the link from these three places to Addlestone and Chertsey to Staines. However, whereas route 451 served Byfleet on its way between Weybridge and Addlestone, new route 51 terminates at Byfleet and Brooklands Tesco/M&S, serving Weybridge between there and Addlestone. The section of route between Addlestone and Chertsey was replaced by new route 51 (except one road), and the service from Chertsey to Staines was also replaced by the 51, as well as revised route 446 which runs along the same route between these two places. Finally, route 513 was extended from Cobham to Byfleet, giving Byfleet a direct bus twice a day to Kingston, partially replacing the lost link of route 451 regularly running between Byfleet and Kingston. The changes came into effect on 28 August 2010, therefore route 451's last day was 27 August 2010.
