Transport for London is introducing a brand new night bus route to improve bus services in the Mill Hill, Watford Way and Hendon Way areas.

The N113 enters service on 30 June and follows requests from passengers and local residents for improved links to and from central London. 

The service will operate every 30 minutes every night of the week between Edgware Station and Trafalgar Square, following the same route as the 113 day service from Edgware via Apex Corner, Watford Way, Hendon Way, Finchley Road, Swiss Cottage, Gloucester Place (northbound), Baker Street (southbound) to Oxford Street, then via Oxford Circus, Regent Street and Piccadilly Circus to Trafalgar Square.

John Barry, Head of Network Development for London Buses, said: 'London's bus network is kept under constant review to ensure we provide the best possible service for passengers. The introduction of new night route N113 reflects our continuing efforts to listen to our passengers and develop the network to suit their needs.'

The new N113 follows the same route as the existing N13 night bus between Fortune Green and Trafalgar Square. 

From 30 June the N13 will operate at a reduced frequency of every 30 minutes during the week and every 15 minutes at weekends. This means that the same overall capacity will be maintained where both routes run in parallel.

Elsewhere on route N13, Golders Green is also served through the night by route N5 from central London and orbital night routes 83 and 102. North Finchley is also served by night routes 134 and N20 from central London
