[edit] History

The H32 was formed from a section of the withdrawn route 232 on 24 April 1993.

The original route 232 began on 12 October 1955, running from Hounslow Garage to Greenford, as a replacement for the withdrawn section of route 111 between Hounslow and Heston. On 8 May 1963 the route was extended to Northwood Station, and Mount Vernon Hospital on Sunday afternoon and evenings, to replace the withdrawn route 225. By 19 February 1968 the route has been extended to run to Mount Vernon Hospital at all times, although this was reduced to Monday - Friday peaks on the introduction of a new route 282 on 30 November 1968.

The 232 was withdrawn on 30 November 1974, and route 232A (running between Hounslow and Northolt, but serving Convent Way Estate in Heston instead) which used Daimler Fleetlines (DMSs) had an increase in service to replace it. Route 232A was renumbered route 232 on 31 March 1979, and the DMSs were replaced by Metrobuses during September. The 232 was withdrawn, again, on 24 April 1993, this time replaced by a new route H32 between Hounslow and Southall, and an extension to route 120 from Southall to Northolt.
