The mainline journey to Victoria allows interchange with the Northern underground line to Euston and King’s Cross/St Pancras, from which mainline trains run to the North and Scotland.

Parking restrictions & event days
Priority red routes criss-cross Battersea; they are marked by red lines, and no stopping is permitted except in emergency or to set down or pick up a disabled person (permission which does not include waiting), and certainly no parking. Parts of Battersea are in Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs), where on-street parking is restricted to permit holders between 09:00 and 17:00 or (in some cases) 21:00 hours.
Overnight, weekends & bank holidays

Drop-off and pick-up
Passengers can always be dropped off and picked up anywhere without yellow kerb markings, and in the case of disabled passengers, this includes red routes, though this does not convey a right to wait, and care should be taken on red routes since other drivers will not be expecting you to stop.

While both north Battersea and Clapham itself have several places worth a visit, the area around Clapham Junction station has little to commend it.
