Hi all,


I was wondering if anyone could recommend the best route to Heathrow via public transport? I've got to leave during the evening rush hour and was wondering which would be quickest! I don't want to use the Heathrow Express as it's ridiculously overpriced and by the time I've got to Paddington probably not much quicker! I've got to take a huge great suitcase so would prefer minimal interchanges on the tube...


Any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks!

I'd agree with the above - but remember not to follow the interchange signs at Green Park (since then you'll have to lug the case up and down stairs). Instead, just take the Way Out to the top of the escalator and then go back down the Piccadilly line escalator.


If you don't mind a couple of sets of stairs, then you might want to take the 185 to Victoria and then take the District/Circle line changing at Hammersmith where it's a simple cross the platform as an interchange to the Piccadilly line.

With the criteria of avoiding Heathrow Express then roblay suggestion of getting to Victoria either via Denmark Hill or Peckham Rye stations depending which part of ED you're travelling from, then district and then picadilly. TYhis interchange is just crossing over the platform. I tend to use Barons Court at busier times as its quieter and you have an advantage in getting a sesat over people changing trying to do the same but at Hammersmith.

    • Hope all the ‘high streets for people’ events went well! Very short notice probably for people living in the area and on a very hot day!  James McAsh just doesn’t know what to do next with Southwark Council Tax payers money. He advocates the few streets in the area that has a bus service and then shuts the routes down! Very annoying for people who want to go about their daily business and have already had restrictions brought in by McAsh. 
    • Thank goodness for Greg. I had an awful situation whereby I was notified that water was leaking from my flat into the flat below me. I was 150 miles away at the time and had a panicked journey home not knowing what I was going to face.   I called Greg (after seeing reviews on the forum) as soon as I arrived home in the evening and he arrived just after 10pm and was able to shut off the problem. He had to come back to finalise the job which turned out to be caused in a communal area whereby there was a blockage in the stack pipe.   Greg worked quickly, efficiently and informed me every step of the way as to what he was doing and why. He also cleaned up really well afterwards.  Greg's charges are very reasonable and he will definitely be my "go-to" if I have any other plumbing issues in the future.
