01

Choose a timed arrival

Work backward from hotel check-in, restaurant booking or event start and allow time to navigate the complex.

02

Check live public transport

Use the official network planner for disruptions, accessibility, replacement services and the intended travel date.

03

Set the final walking leg

Route to the named hotel, restaurant or casino entrance rather than a broad Southbank map result.

04

Record pickup rules

Confirm current taxi and rideshare zones and avoid arranging pickup at a vehicle-restricted or ambiguous door.

05

Plan a sober exit

Decide the return method before drinking or gambling and keep an affordable non-driving alternative.
