Essex and Southend
Essex is Southend's home county. The coastal towns — Southend-on-Sea, Leigh-on-Sea, Shoeburyness — are minutes away; Basildon, Wickford, Rayleigh and Billericay are 15–30 minutes; Chelmsford, Brentwood, Maldon and Grays around half an hour via the A127, A13 and A130. None carries the London surcharge, so Essex fares are among the keenest in our network.
