The London Borough of Redbridge is a London borough of outer northeast London. It was formed by the merger of the Essex Boroughs of Ilford and Wanstead and Woodford in 1965 (along with part of Dagenham and part of Chigwell Urban District), and its name comes from a bridge over the River Roding.

It includes the areas:

The Great Eastern Mainline from Liverpool Street passes through the borough east to west with stations at Ilford, Seven Kings and Goodmayes. These are all planned to be on the cross-London Crossrail route.

The London Underground Central Line also passes through the borough with stations at Snaresbrook, South Woodford and Woodford on the Epping branch and Wanstead, Redbridge, Gants Hill, Newbury Park, Barkingside, Fairlop and Hainault on the Hainault branch, following the route of the A12 from Wanstead to Newbury Park.
