True, but it is *very* busy - it acts basically as a mid-Bucks Parkway.
The number of parking spaces gives you a clue ;-)
I genuinely wonder how many commuters those 506 spaces (as per NRE)
provide for, as it were - i.e. how many cars will have 2+ occupants/
commuters. (Ok, before anyone says it, I'm perhaps being a bit sloppy
by using the term 'commuters' there - I'm guessing that some car
parking spaces might still be available for non-commuter rail
travellers - that's leaving aside the issue of how one defines a
commuter!)
A 506 space car park is quite large, Watford Junction only has 750
spaces. There will also be the 'kiss and ride' passengers and the
route to Tring is easily cycle-able and not out of the question for
walking from much of town.
