Hanger Lane Gyratory System
Encyclopedia : H : HA : HAN : Hanger Lane Gyratory System
The Hanger Lane Gyratory System is a vast, complex roundabout system at the intersection of Western Avenue (A40), the North Circular (A406) and Hanger Lane in the borough of Ealing in west London. It covers an area of about 30 000 square metres. An above-ground section of the London Underground Central Line passes under the roundabout. The island in the middle contains Hanger Lane tube station and a nature reserve [link].
The junction became a gyratory system in the late 1970s when the western side of the loop was built.
