I have several work shifts coming up which finish at 10pm and I need to use the station on the way home. I'm not one for going out much (I am almost always home before 8pm) so I am a bit worried that finishing work at 10pm will be a bit unsafe. if I was finishing work at 10pm in central london I would feel pretty safe but I'm not sure its the same around stratford haha

Personally I’ve never had an issue - been out late in Stratford many times and always been ok and it’s usually busy around that time.

Yes

BeaRF75 · 04/03/2024 16:29

Yes. Stratford is always pretty busy, so I would use it without hesitation.

It'll still be busy at that time and there'll be staff around.

MagicTape · 04/03/2024 16:35

It's absolutely fine. Usually still quite busy around that time which makes it safer, and very thoroughly covered with CCTV. I've used that station between 10 - 11pm and it's as safe as any other tube station.

TheYearOfSmallThings · 04/03/2024 16:36

Yes, it will be busy and full of people.

ancienticecream · 04/03/2024 16:36

Done it loads of times, it's safe.

beguilingeyes · 04/03/2024 16:38

Yes. The shopping centre is open really late with a casino and cinema and restaurants so it's always busy.

lioneggs · 04/03/2024 16:39

I never felt unsafe there in the 4 years I lived in that area

ISeeTheLight · 04/03/2024 16:40

Yes. I never had an issue, even before the olympics when it was still pretty rough.

KarmaCaramello · 04/03/2024 16:51

Wouldn't give it a second thought

OneMoreTime23 · 04/03/2024 16:55

Absolutely.

I was at Deptford Bridge at midnight last night and that was fine too!

Horrible place for other reasons but so busy with people that it is as safe at 10pm as it is at 6pm (and probably safer than at 4pm when the school kids are around)
