Embankment - Travel

London Transport Web Site

The Victoria Embankment spreads from Blackfriars bridge on the north side through to Westminster Bridge and includes Hungerford and Waterloo Bridges. It is parallel to The Strand and is therefore well served by buses, tubes and trains, not forgetting the legendary London Taxi.

By Rail
The main rail stations are Charing Cross and Blackfriars Stations with easy access to the London Underground. Thameslink calls at Blackfriars running from St. Albans, Luton, Bedford and Gatwick.
