Taxi or train from Borough?

On the network it is Borough (the Northern line) to Custom House (Elizabeth line and the DLR), plus a 5-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that it is fine with one bag and awkward if you are carrying exhibition kit. The taxi is about 25 min, or 45 min when the roads are full, but it is one journey rather than three, and nobody stands up for any of it. If you are travelling light and early, the train usually wins on price. If you are in a group, carrying anything, or leaving after an event, the car wins on everything else.

The route

Out of Borough (SE1) the driver picks up the A3 then the A100, joining A13 then Connaught Bridge and Western Gateway for the run-in. That is about 6 miles. Reckon 25 min off-peak and 45 min if you are crossing town at the wrong moment.

Pickups in Borough land inside the Congestion Charge zone, which is already in the price - and on SE1 the driver will name a legal stopping point rather than idle on a red route.

Where the driver waits at ExCeL London

The Western or Eastern entrance taxi ranks on Western Gateway. ExCeL is over a kilometre end to end, so it matters whether your hall is at the West or East entrance - tell us the hall number when booking. Your driver sends the exact standing point and the registration before they set off, so you are not circling a car park looking for a number plate.

Address: One Western Gateway, Royal Victoria Dock, E16 1XL.

Parking at ExCeL London

Parking at ExCeL London is limited and the surrounding streets are metered or permit-only, so self-driving usually costs more in time than the fare saves. Being dropped at the door and collected at an agreed point removes the whole problem.

The driver waits. We watch venue finish times rather than working to a fixed clock, so a late curtain does not leave you stranded or cost you extra.
