Major Highways
- M25 - London orbital motorway accessible from the north of the borough via nearby junctions, providing rapid access to national motorway network.

Cycling Infrastructure

Recent and Upcoming Improvements
- Meridian Water regeneration and station (opened 2019) / local rail capacity upgrades - Major regeneration at Meridian Water delivered a new station and improved rail access to support new housing and jobs; related service and infrastructure upgrades have been part of borough investment.
- Station accessibility and refurbishment programmes - Ongoing works across borough stations have delivered and are planning further step‑free access, modernised ticketing facilities and improved passenger information at priority interchanges.
- Bus priority, junction and public‑realm schemes - TfL and the council have implemented and planned bus‑priority measures, traffic signal upgrades and public‑realm improvements around town centres to improve reliability and interchange times.
- Active travel and cycling investments - Continued local and TfL funding for new and upgraded cycle lanes, secure parking and quieter residential street treatments (LTNs / modal filters in some neighbourhoods) to encourage walking and cycling.
- Strategic long‑term proposals (Crossrail 2 and regional links) - Crossrail 2 and other strategic schemes remain long‑term or proposed options that, if progressed, would further change connectivity for the borough; meanwhile local plans continue to focus on incremental capacity and interchange improvements to support growth.
