Woking is literally the centre of the known Universe. Travel and communications between here and the rest of the world are unparalleled, with rail, road and air providing an effective and easy to use network for any traveller.
Rail
Woking’s rail service will get you to Waterloo in anything from 24 to 34 minutes – depending upon whether the train calls at other stations on the journey. Use this link to help plan your journey. Rail Time Table Planner
AirTrack
Railtrack are currently looking at building a short length of track near to Staines so that Woking will be able to link with Heathrow Airport and from there to Paddington Station. This is a £100,000,000 project and is, according to Railtrack, commercially viable. The significance of this is that as public money will not be needed it stands a greater chance of success. The project is still in its planning stage but if it happens it will be the biggest thing to hit Woking since the original link to Waterloo!
