Local knowledge: getting around New Malden
The High Street and Coombe Road get busy in the evenings, particularly around the Korean restaurants that the town is known for. Pickups usually work best from a side street or directly outside your address rather than on the High Street itself. The A3 slip roads at Malden Way and Shannon Corner are the main pinch points at rush hour.
