Hammersmith is a busy hub at the western end of central London, with the Broadway's stations and bus terminal, the Apollo and Lyric theatres, offices along the flyover and quieter residential streets around Brook Green and Ravenscourt Park running down to the river.
The gyratory around the Broadway is one of London's busiest junctions. For pickups nearby we agree a clear point, such as a hotel entrance or a side street, so the driver can stop safely.
We also cover nearby Chiswick, Fulham, Shepherd's Bush, Barons Court, Brook Green, Ravenscourt Park, West Kensington and Barnes.
Local tip: The Hammersmith & City line to King's Cross is direct, so for one traveller the train is a fair option. For a family, the car is door to door.
