Every way to reach Laithwaite Community Stadium — the Cards' home at Kingfield — on a matchday and off it, priced and timed honestly. Matchday parking and the traffic around the ground, the nearest station and the walk, local cabs and ride-hailing when everyone wants one at the same time, and pre-booked, fixed-fare private hire for the groups, the visiting parties, the airport arrivals and the dash home after the match.
Laithwaite Community Stadium sits at Kingfield Road, Woking, Surrey GU22 9AA — the National League, drawing around 6,000. The nearest station is Woking (GU22), about a 20-minute walk or a short cab ride, and the ground is reached via the A320 from the M25 (junction 11), then through the town to Kingfield Road. On a matchday, parking close to the ground is the pinch point — which is why a pre-booked car door-to-turnstile, a group minibus, or a fixed-fare airport transfer so often beats driving and circling for a space.
This guide covers getting to Laithwaite Community Stadium from every angle: matchday parking and traffic, the train and the walk, local cabs and ride-hailing when demand spikes, and pre-booked private hire for groups, visitors, airport arrivals and the getaway after the match. RushXO is a Dartford-based, fully licensed operator covering Woking and the whole of Surrey.
The Laithwaite Community Stadium — still 'Kingfield' to most supporters — has been the home of Woking Football Club since 1908, tucked into a residential corner south-east of the town centre off Kingfield Road, a tight ground built for its neighbourhood rather than the car.
Like most traditional football grounds, Laithwaite Community Stadium draws a big crowd into a relatively tight site, and its access on a busy matchday is shaped by the roads around it rather than acres of dedicated parking. That makes the question of how you arrive — and especially how you leave when the whole crowd wants to at once — worth planning rather than leaving to chance.
The ways to reach Laithwaite Community Stadium on a matchday, with the case each one wins in. The chapters that follow go into parking, trains and pre-booked travel in detail.
Parking is the single biggest matchday headache at Laithwaite Community Stadium. Here's the honest picture and why a dropped-off arrival so often makes more sense.
On the busiest days Laithwaite Community Stadium draws far more cars than the closest spaces can hold, so the surrounding roads carry the load — and the approach can be slow in the hour before kick-off and slower still after the match. The result is a familiar pattern: the nearest parking fills early, latecomers park progressively further out and walk in, and everyone tries to leave through the same few roads at once.
A pre-booked car drops you close to the entrance and is booked to collect you from an agreed point afterwards — no circling for a space, no permit risk, no sitting in the exit queue. For a group it also means nobody has to stay sober to drive, and the fare is fixed however long the day over-runs.
For local supporters, the train is often the cheapest way to Laithwaite Community Stadium. Here's how it fits, and where it falls short on a busy day.
The nearest station to Laithwaite Community Stadium is Woking (GU22), about a 20-minute walk or a short cab ride. Woking sits on the South Western main line, running into London Waterloo in about 25 minutes (fast services), so visitors from London or along the line can reach the area by rail and walk the rest.
The honest line: if you're local, it's a daytime fixture and you're travelling light, the train and a walk are perfectly good. For groups, later finishes and visitors from afar, a pre-booked car is the cleaner answer.
On a normal day, a local cab or a ride-hailing app gets you to Laithwaite Community Stadium easily. On a busy matchday — and especially at the finish — the maths changes.
Woking's local licensed cabs and the ride-hailing apps both serve Laithwaite Community Stadium well enough before kick-off, when demand is spread out. The problem is concentration: at the finish a large crowd wants to leave in the same short window, and that's when ranks empty, apps surge and waits balloon.
The single smartest move is to book the pickup in advance: a named driver, an agreed meeting point a short walk from the ground, and a fare that doesn't surge no matter how the day over-runs or how heavy the demand. You walk to a car that's waiting rather than watching an app price climb.
Not every trip to Laithwaite Community Stadium needs a booked car — but for a clear set of situations it's the obvious answer.
If you're a local single visitor and the trains are running, we'll happily point you to the station. Where a booked car genuinely wins — groups, big days, later finishes, airport arrivals and the getaway — that's where RushXO is the right choice, with the fare fixed however long the day over-runs.
Getting a group to Laithwaite Community Stadium together is exactly what the RushXO fleet is for — from a single saloon to a nine-seater minibus for the whole party.
The everyday car for one to three passengers with standard luggage — the default for local Woking runs, station hops and solo or couple airport trips.
The premium saloon for business arrivals and anyone wanting extra comfort and space. Leather, climate control and a quieter ride for the long airport runs.
For four to six passengers with luggage, or a smaller group that wants the boot space — the sweet spot for families and the point where the per-head cost drops well below the train.
A larger minibus for groups of seven or eight with luggage — sports teams, extended families, colleague groups. One vehicle, one fixed fare, everyone together.
The full minibus for the largest single-vehicle groups — tour parties, large families, corporate groups and event-day outings where splitting across cars would be a headache.
Zero-emission saloons for a greener journey, and wheelchair-accessible vehicles for passengers with mobility needs. Specify the requirement when booking.
All fares are confirmed in writing at booking. For a big day, the minibus is the star: the whole group travels together, drops at the ground, and is collected from an agreed point afterwards on one fixed fare — no convoy of cars, no one left driving, no surge.
Back comes one written quote for an 8-seater, the drop and the pickup both locked, the driver allocated, and the return priced the same whether the day runs long or short. The whole party travels together and nobody drives.
For visitors and anyone flying in for the day, the journey to Laithwaite Community Stadium is a longer, less familiar one — and a fixed-fare transfer takes the guesswork out of it.
RushXO covers the longer runs to Laithwaite Community Stadium as well as the local ones: group transfers from across Surrey and London, and direct airport-to-venue transfers for visitors flying in. Because we're a Surrey operator, the driver knows the area and the event-day road management rather than following a meter round unfamiliar streets.

The questions visitors most often ask about reaching Laithwaite Community Stadium, answered honestly.
Laithwaite Community Stadium is at Kingfield Road, Woking, Surrey GU22 9AA — home of Woking FC in the National League, with a capacity of around 6,000. The nearest station is Woking (GU22), about a 20-minute walk or a short cab ride, and it is reached by road via the A320 from the M25 (junction 11), then through the town to Kingfield Road.
If you're local, the trains are running and it's a daytime fixture, the station and a short walk are cheap and avoid the parking. For groups, later finishes, visitors from afar or anyone who wants to skip the end-of-day scramble, a pre-booked fixed-fare car — door-to-turnstile, with the pickup booked in advance — is the cleaner option.
Parking close to the ground fills early on a busy day and the surrounding roads can be slow before kick-off and after the match. Being dropped off and collected at an agreed point skips the lot — no circling, no permit risk, no exit queue.

At the finish a large crowd requests a car at once, so ride-hailing surges and availability collapses exactly when you need it. A pre-booked RushXO car is reserved for you at a fixed fare with an agreed pickup point — you walk to a waiting car instead of watching an app price climb.
