Route and Journey Time
The drive from Bradford to London is about 203 miles and normally takes 4 to 4 and a half hours, mostly via the M62 and M1. Allow extra time on Friday afternoons and in the London rush hours. Your driver takes you door to door, so there is no change of trains and no carrying luggage through stations.
Taxi or Train from Bradford to London?
Trains to King’s Cross run direct from Bradford Interchange or via Leeds. The train is usually cheaper for one person travelling light. A taxi makes more sense for families and groups, for heavy luggage, for early or late journeys, and when you are going to an address rather than a station, because the fare covers the whole car and takes you to the door.
Going to an Airport Instead?
If you are flying, you can go straight to the airport rather than into central London:
| From Bradford | Miles | Saloon | MPV (up to 5) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heathrow | 204 | £348 | £489 |
| Gatwick | 241 | £407 | £569 |
