You will find an A-Z of London street map useful, available from most bookshops or newsagents. Driving in London is difficult, with frequent traffic jams and few parking spaces. The best way to get around is by public transport. Rail services and underground services are fast and frequent - and the maps and travel directions are clear. Buses are good for short journeys.
Underground and bus route maps are available from London Transport (LT) information centres at Euston, Heathrow, Kings Cross, Oxford Circus, Piccadilly Circus, St James 's Park and Victoria underground stations.
UK students qualify for one-third off the price of rail travel with a Student Travel card . It is necessary to complete an application form, supplied by the school, and submit it along with two passport-size photographs and £5.00 to the school who will then verify your student status and forward the form to Transport for London. This process usually takes about 10 days.
Use an Oystercard to get around London. Oyster is London's travel smartcard system. At its heart is the Oyster card, which can store your Travelcard or Bus Pass season ticket or Pre Pay (pay-as-you-go travel value) for use on the Tube, buses, Docklands Light Railway, trams and National Rail services within London.
