From Ilford (IG1, IG2, IG3) the natural line out is the A12 and the A406, joining A12 Blackwall Tunnel Northern Approach, then Warton Road for the last part of the journey. The whole thing runs to about 7.6 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 25 min off-peak becomes 40 min when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
Pudding Mill Lane is the quickest private hire pickup; the Stratford side jams solid after events. The Olympic Park bridges are pedestrian-only on event days, so pickup is on the Pudding Mill Lane side rather than Westfield.
Address: Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Stratford, E20 2ST.
Pickups cover the whole of Ilford and the IG1, IG2, IG3 districts across East London. House, hotel lobby or office reception, whichever suits you on the day.
Pickups run across Ilford and the IG1, IG2, IG3 streets around it, at whatever hour you need; there is no minimum and no surge.
Doors are usually an hour before the match starts. Allowing 40 min for the drive from Ilford plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night.
