Wood Lane: Location and Local Orientation
Wood Lane Underground station is recorded by TfL at Wood Lane Station, Wood Lane, London. Use Wood Lane to anchor your taxi or cab enquiry rather than a broad neighbourhood name. Its Underground fare-zone reference is 2; a Tube fare zone does not set the price of a taxi or minicab.
The closest other Underground station positions in this directory are White City (0.26 km), Shepherd's Bush Market (0.47 km), and Latimer Road (0.62 km). Those figures are straight-line distances calculated from TfL coordinates, not walking routes, station interchanges or journey-time estimates.
Named Places Around Wood Lane
Named green-space landmarks around Wood Lane include Hammersmith Park (public park or garden, approximately 0.17 km to the mapped boundary); Westway Sports Centre (other sports facility, approximately 0.48 km to the mapped boundary); Church of St Michael and St George (religious grounds, approximately 0.50 km to the mapped boundary). These are straight-line distances derived from the TfL station position and Ordnance Survey’s April 2026 mapped site polygons. A boundary can be much closer than a usable entrance: these figures do not describe walking routes, road access or a place for a driver to wait.
If your journey ends at Hammersmith Park, give its own entrance or street address when booking. A taxi booking for the Underground station identifies a different destination from the surrounding park, grounds or sports site. Confirm visitor arrangements with the site before travelling.

Luggage, Access and Your Minicab Meeting Point
The station’s captured TfL facilities reference includes lift facilities listed and a waiting room listed. Check current access with TfL if stairs or the final walk affect your journey: these are dated facilities references, and a facility listing alone does not establish a complete step-free route.
For a minicab at Wood Lane, give your actual entrance or nearby address, arrival line and luggage count. Agree a permitted road meeting place; the station address and photograph are location references, not waiting instructions.
Airport Taxi Planning from Wood Lane
For an airport cab from Wood Lane, start with the station collection address and the airport terminal, rather than only “London airport”. Gloucester Road is an example of a Piccadilly-line interchange shared with the Circle network; use TfL’s planner to compare that rail option on the day. A dispatcher must separately confirm the road journey, price, vehicle and any airport charges.
