Matchday Buses

Hey all,

I know usually i am here to help you all by graciously pointing out why everyone's opinions are wrong/misguided and sharing my knowledge but was hoping you could help me now.

After home games I know there are usually bus diversions but where is the nearest point one can pick up the 132 from ?

    I would have one’s chauffeur drop you at IKEA (it’s a Swedish meatball outlet, with a sideline in cheap wonky furniture). You can pick up the 132 from there but, be warned, you will have to share the bus with a large number of lower class plebs. 😉

    161 to Eltham and pick up the 132 there?

    Walking to IKEA is the best option because of traffic. Short cut across the M&S/Sainsbury's car park.

    I am hoping the soon to arrive S4 Superloop will have a stop within an easy and comfortable walk to the Valley.
    It is slated as having a stop at the ‘Sun in the Sands’, but that area is a big rather nasty traffic dominated concrete roundabout. If the stop turns out to be right outside the Sun in the Sands pub on the Eastern side of the Blackwall/Silvertown approach then the walk from there is a piece of resistance.

    Take a taxi so you do not have to mix with the riff raff.

    Route SL4 will commence operation from 7 April 2025 as part of the previously consulted Silvertown Tunnel proposals running between Grove Park and Canary Wharf via Lee - Blackheath - Shooters Hill Road - Sun in the Sands - Leamouth - East India.

    This indicates the stops currently used by the 89 to the west of the roundabout.

    Download the Citymapper app, and give it a try.

    If you put it in at home to, wherever you go it will get you there, and you can use it abroad as well.

    You can also put in what time you want to get there as well, and it will show you.

    Seth, it still wouldn't be a big problem because you can either use the underpass or walk back slightly and use the pedestrian walk through from Shooters Hill Road to Old Dover Road.
    The pedestrian route is roughly opposite the end of Kidbrooke Park Road and lead into St Johns Road and continues into Old Dover Road coming out by the M&S.
