Lambeth to the airports and Eurostar, fixed and fully priced
Lambeth runs south from the Thames at Waterloo and the South Bank through Vauxhall, Kennington and Stockwell to Brixton, Clapham, Streatham and West Norwood. The A23 Brighton Road starts here, making Gatwick a straightforward run, while Heathrow is reached west along the A4 or A3.
For pricing the borough divides in two: Waterloo, Kennington and Vauxhall (SE1, SE11, SW8) are inside Rushxo's central surcharge zone; Brixton, Clapham, Stockwell, Streatham and West Norwood are inner London without it.

What changes the fare in Lambeth
Waterloo and the South Bank (SE1) are central London in the booking engine, with the Congestion Charge allowance and the £20 central surcharge. Kennington (SE11) and Vauxhall/South Lambeth (SW8) are in the extended surcharge zone. Brixton, Stockwell, Clapham, Streatham and West Norwood (SW2, SW4, SW9, SW16, SE27) carry neither. The fare table shows both zones.
Lambeth pickup guide, area by area
Where to wait, which roads slow things down and whether the central surcharge applies – Lambeth area by area.
| Area | Postcode | Central surcharge? | Pickup notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Waterloo & South Bank | SE1 | Yes | Station and theatre crowds – give a hotel name or a street off Waterloo Road. |
| Vauxhall | SW8 | Yes | Large gyratory; meet on a side street or at your building entrance. |
| Kennington | SE11 | Yes | Quiet squares near the Oval; easy door-to-door. |
| Brixton | SW2 / SW9 | No | Brixton Road is very busy – residential roads either side are quicker. |
| Stockwell | SW9 | No | Close to the A3 and A203. |
| Clapham | SW4 | No | Clapham High Street and the Common are busy; give a side road. |
| Streatham | SW16 | No | On the A23 – the fastest start for Gatwick. |
| West Norwood & Herne Hill | SE27 / SE24 | No | Hilly residential streets close to the A215. |
Add anything that helps the driver find the door – a building name, a side entrance, a code. Arrival messages are automatic.
