Aldershot.

Aldershot is a garrison town of around 40,000 people, five miles up the A325 from us and the busiest single destination on our patch. Since the bus station closed in 2023 the evening options have thinned out, which is when most of our Aldershot taxi work happens.

Local knowledge

Getting around
Aldershot.

Aldershot has been the home of the British Army since the first permanent camp was built in 1854, and the garrison still shapes the town's land, its employment and its traffic. It is urban and working rather than rural, which makes it quite unlike the villages south of Farnham, and it forms one built-up area of roughly 243,000 people with Farnborough.

Door to door, and the local landmarks

Every journey starts at your own door, so nobody has to walk to a meeting point. These are simply the places people name when they book, and the landmarks drivers navigate by. The Wellington Centre and the pedestrianised Union Street end of town are the town-centre names people give most. We also run regularly to the Recreation Ground, home of Aldershot Town, to Princes Hall for events, and to the Royal Garrison Church of All Saints. The Wellington Statue on Round Hill is the landmark most people navigate by.

What drivers watch for

Since the bus station closed in May 2023, Stagecoach services run from on-street stops, so there is no single place to wait and evening cover is thinner than people expect. Event nights at Princes Hall and home matches at the Recreation Ground both create a sharp pickup peak, so those are worth booking ahead rather than chancing.

Questions

Before
you book.

What people usually ask about local journeys from Aldershot.

How long does it take to get from Farnham to Aldershot?

About 13 to 20 minutes on the A325, depending on the time of day. The Wellington roundabout and the Farnborough Road stretch are the parts that slow down at peak.

Do you cover the garrison and the barracks?

Yes, regularly. Personnel, visiting families and airport runs to Farnborough and Heathrow make up a good share of our Aldershot work. Give the dispatcher the gate or block you need.

Is there still a bus station in Aldershot?

No. Aldershot bus station closed in May 2023 and services now run from on-street stops only, which is why late evenings and Sundays are effectively taxi-only here.

Can you pick up from Aldershot station or the Recreation Ground?

Yes to both. Aldershot station is on the Alton line with services to Waterloo, and we run matchday pickups from the Recreation Ground, which is easier pre-booked than flagged down.
