From Southampton (SO14, SO15, SO16) the natural line out is the M3 J14 and the M27, joining M27 J7, then A334 Botley Road for the last part of the journey. That is about 6.4 miles door to door. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 20 min off-peak becomes 20 min when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
The Botley Road entrance, by the hotel side of the ground. Botley Road is the only real way in and out, so on a full international day the exit queue runs 30 minutes.
Address: Botley Road, West End, Southampton, SO30 3XH.
Pickups cover the whole of Southampton and the SO14, SO15, SO16 districts across Hampshire. House, hotel lobby or office reception, whichever suits you on the day.
Southampton sits on the M3 J14, M27 corridor, which is what makes this journey predictable rather than a gamble on the day.
