Best commute from central London to Canary Wharf?

[HannsG]

Looks like something might be brewing for me that way...

My usual commute is get into Liverpool street and then catch tube for around 20mins and arrive at work...

Which is the best station to arrive at for a daily commute into Wharf?

I have heard horror stories about getting to Wharf. I live in Leighton Buzzard/Milton Keynes..

Hi,

I used to commute to Canary Wharf from NW London. What about DLR or Jubilee from Bond St?

From Liverpool St, I think there is a bus that goes there (at max, maybe a change required).

Take the train into Euston, then cycle along the Regents Canal

Waterloo, Southwark (Waterloo East) and London Bridge are all on Jubilee and are 4, 3 and 2 stops respectively.

Easiest and quickest (~10-15 mins) is DLR from Bank. You can walk to Bank from Liverpool Street in 10 mins.

I thought OP meant an alternative arrival station into London. Perhaps he could clarify.

But you'll queue for ages. Best is the Bank/DLR suggestion.

Can't think of any trains that start in Leighton Buzzard/Milton Keynes and stop in Waterloo. Am I missing something?

if i were you i'd get to Liverpool street and walk down to Bank and get the DLR. Ok may not be the quickest, but the walk will be 5min but worth it to be n the DLR is is a good journey as its mostly above ground so you get air (never underestimate that in this weather!). you can nip on the central line from Liverpool St to Bank if its raining as well.

The DLR isnt as quick as the underground, but generally the DLR is less busy (unless the tube packs up then it all goes to sh!t).

Otherwise, its into london via Kings Cross and then via northern line to London Bridge then tube, but as mentioned Lon Bridge can be a packed affair after 8.30ish
