I use this car park when visiting London. Anyone know if it will be in
the extended zone come Feburary, or be classed as part of the free
route (not at all clear from TFL's website)

Also is there any easy way to get there from the M40/A40 without paying
(currently use Holland park Roundabout and the Bayswater Road)

Looks like you should be okay,


Yes, same map I looked at. Should be OK, but not totally clear.

but will have to come off at the Marylebone
flyover and use the Edgeware Road to get to Marble Arch.


No go, unless they change the banned turn rules.Marylebone road to Old
marylebone Road is no right turn according to my map (the reason I use
the Bayswater Road to begin with). Looking at the rather long
Gloucester Place-Park Road-St Johns Wood Road-Edgware Road route, or
even A4 Cromwell/Brompton Road then up Park Lane.


Well the kerbs and railings of the Edgeware Road flyover were being
rebuilt when I went over it last week, so it's quite possible they are
reinstating a legitimate slip off the Westway just before the flyover
and will subsequently be putting the right turn back in.
