Nearest stops only — not every stop in the radius
The blue circle is the full search area. Pins on the map are a sample of the closest stops: up to rail, metro/tube and bus. Many more stops can exist inside the circle.
Walking and driving times are estimates from straight-line distance × 1.3 (urban paths), at 4.8 km/h walking and 30 km/h driving plus a 2-minute departure buffer. They are not live journey times.

What this transport & commute checker shows
Enter a UK postcode or town to map nearby rail stations, metro/tube stops and bus stops from the Department for Transport’s NaPTAN register. See distance plus estimated walking and driving times — a practical first look at commute options before you buy, rent or relocate.
Nearest rail, metro & bus
Quick cards for the closest train station, tube/metro stop and bus stop, with walk and drive estimates.
Stops map
Colour-coded pins for rail, metro/tube and bus within your radius, plus a search circle around the geocoded pin.
Walk & drive estimates
Times are modelled from straight-line distance for a fast neighbourhood comparison — not live timetables or sat-nav ETAs.
Buying with commute in mind
Station and bus access shapes daily travel and car dependence. Check transport early alongside schools, shops and sold prices.
How to check transport near a property
- Enter a UK postcode (e.g. YO1 8SU) or a town name, or use your current location.
- Choose a search radius from 1 km up to 10 km depending on how far you will walk or drive to a stop.
- Review the nearest rail, metro/tube and bus cards, then explore pins on the map.
- Open the lists for each mode to compare distances and walk/drive estimates.
- Remember: results show a capped sample of the nearest stops, not every stop inside the blue circle.
Transport & commute FAQ
How do I check transport near a UK postcode?
Enter a postcode or town and choose a radius. We geocode the location, then map the nearest rail, metro/tube and bus stops with estimated walking and driving times.
What data does the transport checker use?
Stop locations come from DfT NaPTAN under the Open Government Licence. The map uses OpenStreetMap. Pins show a capped sample of the nearest stops within your radius.
Are walking and driving times exact commute times?
No. They are estimates from straight-line distance adjusted for typical urban paths — not live timetable or sat-nav journey times.
Why check transport before buying a property?
Access to rail, metro and bus stops shapes daily commute options and car dependence. Mapping nearest stations helps you compare neighbourhoods before you view or make an offer.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (DfT NaPTAN) and OpenStreetMap data under ODbL. Services and timetables change — always confirm with operators before relying on a stop for your commute.
