London Regional Office

By London Underground: One90 High Holborn is a three-minute walk from Holborn station (on the Piccadilly and Central lines).

The next nearest tube stops are Tottenham Court Road (Central Line and Northern Line, Charing Cross branch) and Covent Garden (Piccadilly Line) – each about five minutes’ walk from the office.

By bus:
• From King's Cross/St Pancras – 10, 73 (to Bloomsbury Street); 91 (to Holborn station)
• From Euston – 10, 73 (to Bloomsbury Street); 59, 68, 91, 168 (to Holborn station)
• From Victoria – 8, 38 (to Saint George's Bloomsbury, Vernon Place); 24, 73 (to Tottenham Court Road station)
• From Waterloo – 1 (to High Holborn); 59, 68, 168, 171, 188, 243 (to Holborn station)
• All connections (link)
• Bus ‘spider’ map (link)

By train: Taxi fares in central London are expensive so, if you are arriving at one of London's main line train stations, you are advised to use the underground or bus services to complete your journey to One90. As the office is situated right in the centre of the West End, it does not lie close to any of London's Network Rail stations. But if you fancy a brisk stroll through either Bloomsbury or Covent Garden, you can reach the office in around 15 minutes from Charing Cross or about 20 minutes from Euston or Waterloo.

By car: Drivers entering London on weekdays will be liable to pay the London congestion charge. Parking is limited and may be expensive.
