I already know I can use verbs like "trudge" or "stumble" or "stride" but I'm looking for a verb to replace "walk" with that doesn't necessarily mean walk slowly or walk with difficulty. Something that would simply mean "walk".

Jane walked down the Oxford Street to go get to her office.

Remember to mark out words you're asking us about in some way (I've used quotation marks above) - I'm sure you know this by now.
The definite article in front of "Oxford Street" was wrong.

As jutfrank said, if you replace "walk" with another word, you change the meaning. If you look up synonyms for "walk", they all express a particular way of walking, that "walk" doesn't suggest.
