Trains
Stansted Airport train station links London, Cambridge, Peterborough, Leicester and Birmingham with the Airport.
Stansted has a railway station below the terminal building, with rail services to Cambridge, Leicester and the Midlands
every 60 minutes operated by CrossCountry. The Stansted Express train runs to and from Liverpool Street station in London
every 15 minutes and the journey time is 45 minutes.
Coaches
Scheduled express bus or coach services run to and from Stratford, Victoria Coach Station, Liverpool Street Station and
Golders Green (all in London), costing half as much as the train but taking rather longer (ca. 80 - 130 minutes). The
bus/coach station is adjacent to the terminal building. National Express runs scheduled but infrequent direct coach
services to the airport from Oxford as service JL737, taking about three hours, and hourly services to and from
Cambridge. easyBus provides journeys between the airport and Baker Street, Central London.
Roads
Stansted is connected to northeast London and Cambridge by the M11 motorway and to Colchester and Harwich by the
A120 dual-carriageway. The access from the motorway has recently been improved with a new grade-separated junction.
The long term car park is situated about a mile from the terminal and passengers need to allow at least twenty minutes
to park and use a courtesy bus shuttle service prior to check-in. There are short term car parks next to the terminal building.
