Booked a driveway to park on near Redbridge Station wasn't sure what car park is like there and with it being Jubilee weekend could be busy. Short train journey from there to stadium.

Booked on the 9.03am train from Taunton arriving at Paddington at 11.03am.
Train out at 8.03pm.

Cost me £75 but with it being jubilee weekend and the low omission zones I didnt want to risk driving.

Thanks for the feedback with regards to trains. Going to drive in and park a short walk away. Does anyone have the info regards ULEZ/Congestion charges etc? I got caught out by the Dartford crossing a few years back cause I was driving on autopilot so want to get it right this time!

I've booked a spot in Epping Forest on the "justpark" website, only 30 mins on the tube from there, plus Epping's only 15 mins off the M11.

Congestion charge doesn’t apply before 12 and after 6pm - so if you arrive in good time, not an issue. ULEZ depends on your vehicle - google it and you can enter a destination and vehicle reg and it will tell what charges apply.

You won't have any congestion charge to pay but unless you're driving an EV you will need to pay the ULEZ charge which is £12.50 for most vehicles.

I’m not sure that is the case. My car is a 2019 petrol engine and the TFL website confirms it meets the regs and no ULEZ charge applies.
