Staples Corner has excellent road and rail links, being at the junction of the North Circular Road and A5 for Central and Outer London, and with full access to the M1 Junction 1. Brent Cross West Station opened in 2023, and takes 12 minutes to Kings Cross.

West London Orbital line
Proposals for the West London Orbital line set out in the Mayor’s Transport Strategy, which will stop at that station, would also connect growth areas and rail interchanges across west London, and link Brent Cross West station to HS2 at Old Oak Common.
The opening of the Thameslink Brent Cross West station and proposed creation of a West London Orbital passenger route on the Dudding Hill freight line will significantly improve public transport accessibility in the vicinity of Staples Corner.
