Woking and Uxbridge are barely 20 miles apart, but there is no useful direct train between them — the rail route sends you into London and back out again, typically 1 hour 40 minutes with two changes. A fixed-price RushXO car runs it directly in 35–55 minutes up the A320 and M25, door to door, with the fare agreed before you set off. DBS-checked drivers, TfL Private Hire Operator licence 11588.
The route
Woking sits on the South Western Main Line in Surrey; Uxbridge sits at the far western end of the Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines in the London Borough of Hillingdon. On a map they are close — around 20 miles. On the rail network they are not connected in any sensible way: the usual journey runs Woking → Clapham Junction or Waterloo, across London, then out again on the Underground, and lands somewhere around 1 hour 40 minutes with two changes.
By road the picture is completely different. The A320 north out of Woking joins the M25 at Junction 11 (Chertsey), and it is four junctions anticlockwise to Junction 16 for the A40 and Uxbridge. Outside peak that is a 35–45 minute run; in Friday-evening M25 traffic allow closer to 55. Either way it is a single car, a single fare, and no luggage hauled across two London termini.
That gap is why this route gets booked so often by the same handful of groups: Brunel University families on move-in and move-out weekends, contractors working the Stockley Park and Uxbridge business parks who live in the Surrey commuter belt, and anyone connecting to Heathrow from the Woking side who does not want to pay twice.
