Editing Kew (section)

==Transport==
In the past, a main mode of transport between Kew and London, for rich and poor alike, was by water along the [[Thames]], which separated [[Middlesex]] (on the north bank) from [[Surrey]]: Kew was also connected to [[Brentford]], Middlesex by ferry, first replaced by a bridge in 1759. The current [[Kew Bridge]], which carries the [[A205 road|South Circular Road]] (the A205), was opened by [[Edward VII of the United Kingdom|King Edward VII]] and [[Alexandra of Denmark|Queen Alexandra]] in 1903.<ref name="Royal"/>

Kew Road ([[A307 road|A307]]) passes through Kew as a single carriageway, and provides the main road link to [[Richmond, London|Richmond]]. The [[M4 motorway]] starts a short distance north of Kew, providing access to [[London Heathrow Airport|Heathrow Airport]] and the west. The [[A316 road]] starts in Chiswick and continues over [[Chiswick Bridge]] and a complex junction with the South Circular Road at [[List of road junctions in the United Kingdom: C|Chalker's Corner]] at the south-eastern end of the district.

Since 1869 rail services have been available from [[Kew Gardens station (London)|Kew Gardens station]]. [[London Underground]] (District line) services run to Richmond and to central London. [[London Overground]] ([[Mildmay line]]) trains run to [[Richmond station (London)|Richmond]] and (via [[Willesden Junction station|Willesden Junction]]) to [[Stratford station|Stratford]].

The [[London Buses route 65|65]], [[London Buses route 110|110]] and [[London Buses route R68|R68]] bus routes serve Kew.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://content.tfl.gov.uk/bus-route-maps/kew-gardens-a4-121220.pdf|title=Buses from Kew Gardens|publisher=[[Transport for London]]|date=12 December 2020|access-date=12 December 2022}}</ref>
