From Colchester (CO1, CO2, CO3, CO4) the natural line out is the A12 and the A120, joining A14 then A1134 East Road for the last part of the journey. That is about 49.0 miles door to door. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 1h 15m off-peak becomes 1h 35m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
Corn Exchange Street or the Downing Street end, outside the pedestrian core. Cambridge city centre is closed to through traffic by rising bollards, so the nearest legal pickup is Corn Exchange Street.
Address: Wheeler Street, Cambridge, CB2 3QB.
Pickups cover the whole of Colchester and the CO1, CO2, CO3, CO4 districts across Essex. That includes home addresses, hotels, offices and the station forecourt.
Colchester sits on the A12, A120 corridor, which is what makes this journey predictable rather than a gamble on the day.
Doors are usually an hour before the show starts. Allowing 1h 35m for the drive from Colchester plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night.
