The most popular park and ride location is the Surrey Quays Shopping Centre Park and Ride, which is located in south-east London and offers easy access to the city centre via the Jubilee line on the London Underground.
Stanmore tube station is five minutes from junction 4 of the M1. It has a large car park costing £5.20 per day and although it gets busy I would be surprised it was full. From there the Jubilee line will get you to Westminster in about 35-40 minutes with departures every few minutes.
If you're comfortable driving into London, you can park for free on Saturday and Sunday at Westminster, on Storey's Gate and surrounding roads. Single yellow lines and certain bays are fine, obviously check when you're there. I park there regularly on Saturday and never have a problem finding a space.
Parking in London can be difficult, particularly in Central London. If you plan to drive in London, plan ahead by researching car parks near your destination, pre-booking a space and, if necessary, pre-paying the London Congestion Charge.
Please note our station car parks do get busy; spaces are offered on a first come, first served basis and cannot be booked in advanced. Payment is made upon arrival to the car park and cannot be applied retrospectively.
The Tube fare depends on how far you travel, the time of day, and what type of ticket or payment method you use. Oyster cards or contactless payments are the cheapest ways to pay for Tube journeys. Tube services usually run from 5am until midnight, with Night Tube services on some lines on Friday and Saturday evenings.
You can pay as you go using contactless (card or device), an Oyster card or a Visitor Oyster card. It also offers great value as pay as you go is cheaper than buying single tickets and you get daily and weekly capping.
