Whether you need a ride to the start line, help navigating the road closures, or a comfortable journey home after the race, we’ve got you covered.

1. Beat the Traffic With road closures in place on race day, navigating Tonbridge might be tricky if you’re unfamiliar with the area or if you’re driving in from out of town. Our drivers have local knowledge and will be aware of the race route, ensuring you avoid unnecessary delays and reach The Judd School or your chosen drop-off point efficiently.
2. Early Pickups for Runners The half marathon kicks off at 9:00 AM, the 10K at 9:30 AM, and the 5K at 9:45 AM. For runners, this means an early start to the day, especially if you’re warming up or collecting your race pack. We offer early morning pickups to make sure you arrive at the venue well in advance, with time to prepare and settle into the pre-race atmosphere.
3. Perfect for Spectators While runners are busy pounding the pavement, we know that spectators play a huge role in the success of the event. Whether you’re supporting a loved one or just enjoying the community vibe, our taxis can take you to the best vantage points along the route or to the finish line in time to cheer the runners on. With bands and other activities taking place, you won’t want to miss a moment!
