Travel plans tonight… 07:51 - Dec 27 with 3183 views | itfcjoe | My match day travel plans have had to change. So now need easiest/quickest way to drive and tube/train in. Thinking head to Stratford (park at Westfield) then overground from there to H&I. Anyone with better options? Or aware of any flaws in my plan?! [Post edited 27 Dec 2024 7:51]

NP would obviously involve another change (central line to Stratford > OG to H&I) but I find the drive a bit better. Having said that I've tended to be doing it in rush hour where the traffic is heavy. Either way the overground to H&I is easy from Stratford, I used to do it regularly for work. Once there you're a short walk to the stadium and plenty around there to get a drink or something to eat if you're in the market. Getting back on a train after the game might be a bit of a squash but the service is generally pretty good. |  | |  |

You might be better walking to Canonbury post-match |  |

It's a very enjoyable novelty being able to do that this evening isn't it? And then endure the train on Monday..... |  |
