Coordination of transport from Heathrow to Reading (and back)

Hi all,

like @KBarwise suggested, I think it makes lots of sense to share the shuttle/taxi from the airport to the event location.

I will make a start: according to my schedule, I will arrive at 14:20 on Monday. So please feel free to send me a message if you arrive about the same time. Also, if anyone knows the typical size of the shuttle (or is it just a taxi/uber?), it would be helpful.

Hallo everyone,

Plane Arrival: Monday - 21:20 from Brussels.
Plane Departure: Wednesday - 17:50 to Brussels.
Feel free to get in touch if arrival and. departure time somehow matches to share taxi/uber.

Hi
I know there may be underground strikes in London but trains from Heathrow to Reading don’t appear to be affected as these are overground.
Tickets are available on line if you prefer this means of travel.
Looking forward to seeing you at the conference.

I will arrive at Heathrow 0935 on Monday:
Oslo OSL - London LHR 07:55 - 09:35 (2h 40 min)

Dear all,

I arrive around 1045 at Heathrow. Let me know if anyone would like to share a taxi to the venue!

Best and see you all soon,

Remko Schats

we are interested

I’m travelling on Sunday 3rd, and will arrive at Gatwick airport at 08:35. I’ll probably go directly from Gatwick to Mortimer via Reading, arriving at Mortimer just before 13:00. If the weather is as beautiful as the current forecast, I might try to find a nice route to walk the ~3 km to Wokefield.

If anyone is arriving around the same time and would like to join, feel free! :smiley:

As Sharon mentioned, trains are available from Heathrow to Reading. Elizabeth line as one example: Elizabeth line | Heathrow

How to pay: Contactless and mobile pay as you go - Transport for London

To plan the journey: Plan a journey - Transport for London

Go green, take the train :slight_smile:

Hi all,

I made a WhatsApp group for sharing a taxi to and from the venue in Readings. I guess it will be easier this way to organise something! If we are with many we can save costs and already meet each other beforehand.

@varntzen there’s still room for some consideration re the Elizabeth line (so sorry if I’m just making this more complicated )
