Westway

Westway, or The Westway is the main route from central London to the northwestern suburbs and beyond. It starts at Centre Point, the junction of Oxford Street and Tottenham Court Road, and goes all the way to west Wales, as the A40 trunk road. Strictly speaking the name "Westway" only applies to the section between Marylebone and Acton, other parts being known by different names, such as Oxford Street, Western Avenue, London Road, etc. However many people informally refer to the whole road as The Westway. The infamous Hanger Lane Gyratory System is its intersection with the North Circular Road, and it now merges with the M40 motorway beyond Northolt.

A notable landmark on Western Avenue at Perivale is the Art Deco Hoover Building, now a supermarket.

Other things named "Westway"

"Westway" was also the name of a proposed project in New York City, first planned in 1972 and officially canceled in 1985. It would have involved extensive landfill in the Hudson River off Manhattan to accommodate a highway and real estate development.
