Weekly travel update to help you get around London this weekend, 28-29 January. Most of the network will be open with services running as normal, but please check if any of the following affect you. 

Tube strike - Central and Waterloo & City lines
Train operators who are RMT members are taking strike action today, Thursday. Central and Waterloo & City line services are affected. 

All other TfL services are unaffected, but other lines and stations are likelier to be busier than usual. Santander Cycles will be boosted at Tottenham Court Road, Liverpool Street and Oxford Circus.
