Getting to Greenwich by Public Transport Bus Trains River Services

Getting to Greenwich by public transport Bus The campus benefits from good bus services. The routes listed below stop just outside the campus (note the 286 provides a direct route from Avery Hill Campus): 129, 177, 180, 188, 199, 286, 386 Trains Rail Southeastern trains provide direct services from London Charing Cross, Cannon Street, Waterloo East and London Bridge all to Greenwich Station a 10 minute walk away from campus West Gate Entrance. There are also direct services from the Medway towns taking around 50 minutes, though a change at Charlton or Dartford is usually required. If you are travelling from Kent, alight at Maze Hill Station which is a 10 minute walk from campus the East Gate Entrance. For more information view Southeastern timetable information and route map or contact National Rail Enquiries on 08457 484950 Docklands Light Railway (DLR) The Cutty Sark DLR Station is just a two minute walk from the campus West Gate Entrance. Direct services run from Bank, Canary Wharf, Lewisham and Stratford and easy connections are available from Tower Gateway, Beckton and London City Airport. London Underground (Tube) The London Underground tube network is not close enough to walk from and will require transfer onto other public transport. The best option is to get off at Canary Wharf (Jubilee Line) and get a DLR Lewisham bound train to Cutty Sark. Alternatively you could get off at North Greenwich (Jubilee Line) and take a 188 bus to the campus. River services Thames Clippers provide a regular boat service to Greenwich Pier from central London picking up at Savoy Pier, Blackfriars, Bankside, London Bridge, City, St Katherine's, Canary Wharf, Greenland and Masthouse Terrace. The journey takes 35 minutes in total and is probably the fastest way to travel from central London. .

Greenwich Waterfront Transit
Greenwich Waterfront Transit Summary Report This report has been produced by TfL Integration Further copies may be obtained from: Tf L Integration, Windsor House, 42–50 Victoria Street, London SW1H 0TL Telephone 020 7941 4094 July 2001 GREENWICH WATERFRONT TRANSIT • SUMMARY REPORT Foreword In 1997, following a series of strategic studies into the potential for intermediate modes in different parts of outer London, London Transport (LT) commenced a detailed assessment under the title “Greenwich Waterfront Transit” of a potential scheme along the south bank of the Thames between Greenwich Town Centre and Thamesmead then on to Abbey Wood. In July 2000, LT’s planning functions were incorporated into Transport for London (TfL). A major factor in deciding to carry out a detailed feasibility study for Waterfront Transit has been the commitment shown by Greenwich and Bexley Councils to assist in the development of the project and their willingness to consider the principle of road space re-allocation in favour of public transport. This support, as well as that of other bodies such as SELTRANS, Greenwich Development Agency,Woolwich Development Agency and the Thames Gateway London Partnership, is acknowledged by TfL. The ongoing support of these bodies will be crucial if the proposals are to proceed. A major objective of this exercise has been to identify the traffic management measures required to achieve segregation and high priority over other traffic to encourage modal shift towards public transport, particularly from the private car. It is TfL’s view,supported by the studies undertaken, that the securing of this segregation and priority would be critical in determining the success of Waterfront Transit.

Ultimate Spectators Guide to the London Marathon
ULTIMATE SPECTATORS GUIDE TO THE LONDON MARATHON We recommend you purchase a Travelcard to travel around London on the day as this will allow access to Rail, Tube and Bus at no extra charge. Zones 1-2 should be adequate for the travelling around the route, however if you need to go further afield, please check which zones you’ll be travelling in. Buses no longer accept cash payments. You’ll need to use a Travelcard, Oyster card or pay with a contactless debit/credit card. Please note that whilst we do have cheering stations at Tower Bridge (mile 12) and along the Victoria Embankment (mile 24) these will be manned by volunteers and we do not recommend you go to those points on race day. This is because these areas are extremely busy and it can take a long time to move through the crowds. By skipping Tower Bridge, you have more chance of seeing your runner at multiple points on the route, and by going straight to mile 25 from 19 you’ll cheer them on from the end! START AREA Although it’s advised not to accompany your runner to the start due to the high volumes of people, if you decide to see them off, please be aware that spectators will not be allowed into the assembly areas of the start. Once you’ve said your farewells and good lucks, head down the Avenue out of Greenwich Park. Once out of the park, turn left onto Nevada Street and keep walking as it turns into Burney Street.
