Looking for a reliable Liverpool Street to London City Airport taxi? LondonAirport‑Taxi.com collects around one of London’s busiest stations, where Greater Anglia trains arrive from Norwich, Cambridge and Southend, the Stansted Express terminates and the Elizabeth line, Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines all meet. We pick up from the offices of Broadgate and Exchange Square, the Bishopsgate towers, Old Spitalfields Market, Petticoat Lane on Middlesex Street and the Brick Lane end of Shoreditch. The driver normally goes through Aldgate and down Leman Street to The Highway (A1203), then the Limehouse Link and the Lower Lea Crossing. When that is busy, the A13 Commercial Road through Stepney is the fallback.

If you land at City and need to catch a train home from Liverpool Street, we can take you straight back to the station. Your flight is tracked, and the driver waits in the arrivals hall with a name board, with 60 minutes of free waiting from the actual landing — so a late flight will not cost you your train. Travelling with children? Book an MPV or larger and we fit up to two child seats free before collection. The fare is set when you book, the airport charge is already included, and there are no extra charges for late evenings or bank holidays.

Liverpool Street to London City: Distance, Drive Time & A1203 Route

From the Bishopsgate side of the station the driver heads south to Aldgate and down Leman Street to The Highway (A1203), running east past Shadwell into the Limehouse Link tunnel. The tunnel comes out onto Aspen Way, and the Lower Lea Crossing then takes you over the River Lea into the Royal Docks, followed by a short run through Silvertown to Hartmann Road and the terminal. When The Highway is blocked, the driver uses the A13 Commercial Road east through Stepney and Limehouse, then East India Dock Road to Canning Town and south into the docks.
