Taxi or train from Merton?

By rail you would go Wimbledon (District, National Rail and Tramlink) across to Selhurst (National Rail), then a 12-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that three stations serve the ground and none is close. A car does the whole thing door to door in about 25 min, or 40 min when the roads are full - and it does it with your bags in the boot. 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

From the SW19, SW20, CR4 streets the route runs via the A24 then the A219, finishing on A213 Whitehorse Lane, off the A215. About 8.2 miles in all - 25 min when it flows, 40 min when it does not.

We cover the whole of Merton - SW19, SW20, CR4 - including the streets where flagging something down is a matter of luck rather than timing.

Where the driver waits at Selhurst Park

Whitehorse Lane or Park Road, clear of the Holmesdale Road closure. The streets around Selhurst are narrow and go one-way on matchdays, so the meeting point sits on Whitehorse Lane. 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: Holmesdale Road, South Norwood, SE25 6PU.

Parking at Selhurst Park

If you were thinking of driving yourself: Selhurst Park sits inside a matchday or event-day controlled parking zone, on-site spaces are pre-book only and go early, and the residential streets around it are permit-holders only with active enforcement. Being dropped at the door and collected at an agreed point removes the whole problem.

When to leave Merton

Doors are usually an hour before the match. Working back, that means leaving Merton around 40 min plus that hour on a busy night - and booking the return at the same time, because the road out is slower than the road in.
