Transport for London - Weekend travel information

Stay at home

TfL email update




Our services are for essential journeys only. Our message to everyone else is stay at home, don't travel, save lives.

The number of people using Tube and rail services has fallen dramatically by around 95% and the number of people using buses by around 85%. This is important to stop the spread of coronavirus.

It is vital that everyone continues not to travel unless your journey is essential and does not return to the transport network.

Our staff are working hard to support the NHS and protect all Londoners. Please help them and continue to follow the instructions not to travel for as long as it takes to defeat coronavirus.

Stay at home. Don't travel. Save lives.
 
 
 
London Underground
 
  
There are no planned track closures this weekend, but some stations are temporarily closed.
 
London Overground
 

 
From Monday 27 until Thursday 30 April, there will be no service between Surrey Quays and Clapham Junction after 23:00 each night. This is due to Network Rail track work. Use local bus routes 35, 37 or 381.

See an overview of planned track closures for the next six months.

Buses and roads
 

 
We are running a reduced service on all bus routes. Due to the following works, some buses may be diverted or stop short of their normal destination. Make sure you check before you travel.

Kidbrooke - From Saturday 25 April, bus route 178 will no longer serve Henley Cross. Please use alternative stops M (towards Lewisham) and L (towards Woolwich) on Kidbrooke Park Road. Both stops are approximately 250m away and fully accessible via a step-free ramp. This is due to Kidbrooke Station Square development works.

Shoreditch - Until 30 September 2020, Shoreditch High Street will have a contra-flow reducing the width of the carriageway in both directions between Holywell Lane and New Yards Inn. This is due to Shoreditch Village development works.

London Bridge - Until 31 October 2020, London Bridge is closed to general traffic (except buses, licensed taxis, motorcyclists and cyclists). Diversions are in place and there are changes to the junction either side of the bridge. Please take extra care when driving while all users, including pedestrians, get used to the new layout.

Drivers using Blackfriars Bridge or Tower Bridge should expect queues while crossing the river. Travel outside of peak times and use alternative river crossings including Vauxhall, Westminster and Lambeth bridges where possible for an easier journey. This is for essential maintenance works being carried out by the City of London Corporation. Please visit our London Bridge works page for more information.

Check whether your bus is affected.
