Getting there & Getting around

Getting there

The London, Tilbury and Southend line connects Basildon to central London via London's Fenchurch Street and, less frequently, Liverpool Street Station. Catch trains from any of Basildon's three stations: Pitsea, Basildon and Laindon.

By car, the A127 at the north end of town and the A13 on the south side are both handy for London and Southend.

Billericay and Chelmsford are more easily reached by bus.
