Council location

Visiting 160 Tooley Street

160 Tooley Street is located in the north of the borough at the Tower Bridge end of Tooley Street, opposite the Unicorn Theatre. It is served by excellent bus, rail and underground links.

The building is within walking distance of London Bridge Station, which is served by National Rail services to South East London and Kent as well as London underground Northern and Jubilee Line services.

There are four bus services which stop directly outside the building on Tooley Street (City Hall stop on RV1, 47, 343 and 381) and many others which stop at London Bridge station or on Tower Bridge Road.

If you decide to walk, there is good pedestrian access.

For cyclists, there are marked cycle lanes in both directions along Tooley Street providing east-west links between Bermondsey and Southwark.

As the building falls within the congestion charge zone and parking in the surrounding area is limited, we recommend you come by public transport if possible.

The Transport for London (TfL) website at provides more detailed information on your travel options and tools to plan your route.

Arrangements for disabled visitors driving to 160 Tooley Street

In the immediate vicinity of 160 Tooley Street there are 6 parking bays on Barnham Street on the east wall of the building reserved for disabled drivers.  Unfortunately some of these bays are scheduled to be suspended from 18 November 2011 to 3 January 2012 due to gas works taking place in the area.

However, there are 2 additional parking/loading bays at the front entrance to the building on a red route but providing parking for disabled drivers for a maximum period of 3 hours at certain times of the day and after 7 pm.

The council is in discussions with TfL to extend this provision. The parking map highlights the location of other possible options for disabled parking.

The interior of the building is fully accessible, with disabled toilet provision on all floors and lifts to every level.

If you experience difficulties in accessing a public meeting at Tooley Street, please contact the officer named on the agenda for the meeting for further information.
