The Great Eastern Main Line has stations at Romford, Gidea Park and Harold Wood, with Elizabeth line stopping services and Greater Anglia non-stop services originating at the central London terminal at Liverpool Street.

The central London terminal for c2c services is at Fenchurch Street. The Romford to Upminster Line operated by London Overground is entirely contained within the borough and has one intermediate station at Emerson Park.

## Bus routes

There are two main radial bus routes in the borough—the 5 and 86—which connect Romford with the hubs of Stratford and Canning Town bus stations in the west of Newham. Both have corresponding night bus routes (the N15 and the N86) which are extensions of these routes (to Paddington and to Harold Hill respectively). Direct bus services to central London only operate at night. A large number of routes are entirely contained within the borough, with the majority acting as feeder services to the hub at Romford, although some routes serve smaller centres such as Hornchurch and Upminster. Route 66 provides a connection between Romford and stations on the Central line.
The neighbouring borough of Barking and Dagenham has high levels of connectivity with Havering, as does Redbridge. There are direct services to parts of Newham and Waltham Forest. There are no connecting services with the neighbouring borough of Bexley, as it is cut off by the Thames with no directly connecting bridges or tunnels. There are low frequency cross-boundary services with Brentwood, Epping Forest and Thurrock in Essex. Of these, the 370 and 372 both connect the borough with Lakeside Shopping Centre.

## Walking

Havering is on the route of the London Outer Orbital Path, with sections 20 to 24 entirely or partly within the borough.

## Proposed developments

The south of the borough is within the London Riverside regeneration area, where demand for public transport is expected to rise. Havering London Borough Council supports the construction of a new station at Beam Reach, the extension of the East London Transit from Dagenham Dock to Rainham and the proposed Docklands Light Railway extension to Dagenham Dock. These aspirations are shared by the London Thames Gateway Development Corporation who are the planning authority in the designated area of the borough. Of these proposals only the extension of the DLR to Dagenham Dock forms part of the 2009 draft transport strategy of the Mayor of London.
