caption_attribution_description: English: A3220 Approaching the Holland Park Roundabout Approaching the Holland Park Roundabout and heading south. Left for Holland Park, right for Shepherds Bush and ahead for Earls Court. The tower is called the Thames Water Tower. This could not usually be photographed from this angle and this range as there are no overbridges anywhere along here that a pedestrian can use, and pedestrians and cycles are not permitted on the road itself. This photo was done from the top deck of a number 220 bus which was on diversion from its normal route along Wood Lane.
context_page_description: Shepherd's Bush is a district of west London, England, currently classified as a deprived area, within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham 4.9 miles west of Charing Cross, and identified as a major metropolitan centre in the London Plan.
  Although primarily residential in character, its focus is the shopping area of Shepherd's Bush Green, with the Westfield London shopping centre a short distance to the north. The main thoroughfares are Uxbridge Road, Goldhawk Road and Askew Road, all with small and mostly independent shops, pubs and restaurants. The Loftus Road football stadium in Shepherd's Bush is home to Queens Park Rangers. In 2011, the population of the area was 39,724.
  The district is bounded by Hammersmith to the south, Holland Park and Notting Hill to the east, Harlesden and Kensal Green to the north and by Acton and Chiswick to the west. White City forms the northern part of Shepherd's Bush. Shepherd's Bush comprises the Shepherd's Bush Green, Askew, College Park & Old Oak, and Wormholt and White City wards of the borough.
context_section_description: The A3220/West Cross Route runs along the eastern rim of the district. Until 2000, the route was the M41 motorway, part of the abandoned Ringways network of orbital roads in London. Despite not retaining motorway status, pedal cycles are prohibited from using the route northbound. The A3220 links Shepherd's Bush with the A40/Westway to the north. This provides the area with a dual-carriageway link to Paddington and Marylebone to the east, and westbound to Acton and the M40 motorway. Southbound, the A3220 is named Holland Road and links the area to Earl's Court, the A4, and Chelsea.
  Other key routes through Shepherd's Bush include:
  the A219 (Wood Lane/Shepherd's Bush Road) - northbound to White City, Wormwood Scrubs, and Kensal Green, southbound to Hammersmith, Fulham, and Putney;
  the A402 (Goldhawk Road/Holland Park Avenue) - westbound to Chiswick, eastbound to Notting Hill Gate, Marble Arch, and Oxford Street;
  the A4020 (Uxbridge Road) - westbound to Acton and Ealing.
