The route

From King's Cross St Pancras (N1C, WC1) the natural line out is the A501 and the A5200, joining M4 J10 or M3 J3, then A329 and A330 for the last part of the journey. That is about 31.0 miles door to door. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 1h off-peak becomes 1h 25m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.

The Winkfield Road taxi area, by car park 8. On Royal Ascot days the High Street runs one-way with police control from mid-afternoon, so pickups move to Winkfield Road.
