Transport for London - 22 and 23 June - Weekend travel information

Here is our weekly travel update to help you get around London this weekend, 22 and 23 June, and the following week.

Most of the network will be open with services running as normal so you’ll be able to get wherever you need to go. Please check if any of the following affect you.

London Underground

Central line

From 01:00 on Saturday 22 until the close of traffic on Sunday 23 June, there will be no service between White City and West Ruislip. At the very start of the closure, from 01:00 until 04:00 on Saturday (during Friday Night Tube), the closure will be extended and there will be no service between Marble Arch and Ealing Broadway / West Ruislip. This is due to track replacement work. Use alternative Tube or local bus routes. Rail replacement buses will run.

St Paul’s station will be exit only all day on Sunday, starting at 12:45 during Saturday Night Tube. This is for improvement works. For all services, including Night Tube, walk or use local bus services to Bank or Chancery Lane stations. Bank station is an eight-minute walk away from St Paul’s along Cheapside. Alternatively, use buses 8, 25 or 242. Chancery Lane station is a 14-minute walk along Newgate Street, or a short journey on bus routes 8 or 25.
