Metrobus
Metrobus is now operating many services. Please check their website for full information. You can also get advice about travelling safely on board their services.
Services run from both the North and South Terminal. In North Terminal, the Metrobus stops are located on Furlong Way, approximately a 5 minute walk from the main terminal arrivals level.
In South Terminal, the bus stops are on either side of the A23 and are accessible by lift from South Terminal arrivals (for the northbound stops towards Redhill and Horley) and from the inter-terminal shuttle station, near the train station (for southbound stops). There is also a pedestrian walkway under the road which connects both sides of the road.
