History

This route began in 1962, to replace the former trolleybus route 645, which ran from North Finchley to Stanmore, via Finchley Central, Golders Green, Cricklewood, West Hendon, Colindale, Edgware, Stonegrove and Canons Park.

Withdrawn between Colindale and Stanmore, the Edgware to Stanmore section replaced by the revised route 251.

Was rerouted at Cricklewood via route 16 to Sudbury Town Station, withdrawn between Golders Green and North Finchley in 1970.

Extended to Alperton "Sainsbury's" (Mon-Fri except peaks/ Saturday Shopping Hours).

Extended at all times to Alperton Sainsbury's in 1998.

The 245 was at first based at Metroline's Cricklewood garage with RT's double deckers. The allocation was later transferred to Harrow Weald, using Metrobuses, North Wembley gained part of the allocation in 1991, convert the route into single deck, North Wembley gained the whole allocation in 1999, converting the route to low floor single dekers.

Dual doored Dennis Darts transferred from route 189 were bought in to increase the frequency.

Route 245's operation was transferred to First London on 28th June 2008.

Route 245 has always been a one floor bus, but in August 2008, 245 also began to use 2 floor buses.Most 245 buses that you see is one floor.
