Parking advice
 
HI Londoners - I could do with some help

I'm driving the school minibus up to the Unilever Building , Victoria Embankment at Blackfriars, tomorrow but they've just told us there is no parking there. I've looked at a couple of websites but they are out of date or unhelpful with regard to a minibus size and height.

So, to the .org for help please. Where can I park for the day around this place? (and if you know any good tips on roadworks or bottlenexks, that would be useful too!)

Thank you xxx

Looked there - it has a height restriction. I'm taking the minibus which is 2m high

Sally,

Check how far it is from The Oval Cricket ground?

I like your thinking LPH, but unfortunately it's nearly 3 miles. Do you think we could get a bunch of teenagers to walk that far?

Good idea though x

Probably best to go south of the river and walk over Blackfriars Bridge.

However there is this NCP

Why not take the train?

Probably because a minibus full of kids is cheaper to get into London via minibus than train?

Messie, you could try contacting any local hotels to see if they would let you use a parking space, even for a fee maybe?

Why not drop them off. And one person takes the mini bus to LPH. And meet up.with the others via tube ?
