Transport for London

If you are out and about over the weekend, there are lots of public transport options as there are no planned line closures on the London Underground.  There are some potential planned Tube and national rail strikes happening next week. You can find more details below. You can also find details of our latest safer travel guidance on our website. The information in this email could possibly change, so please check before you travel or use the TfL Go app to plan your journey.

London Underground

Tube and national rail strikes — Tuesday 21, Thursday 23 and Saturday 25 June On Tuesday 21 June, strike action will severely disrupt most of TfL's and national rail's services. We are advising customers not to travel during this action. Services which are running, including buses and DLR, are likely to be extremely busy with queues to board. Customers using DLR services from stations also served by the Tube are advised to check before they travel due to possible station closures.  Any Tube services that do operate are unlikely to run after 19:00, so anyone who needs to travel should complete their journey by 18:00. Disruption on all Tube lines will continue through the morning of Wednesday 22 June. No London Underground services are expected to run before 08:00. We encourage customers to avoid making journeys until mid-morning. Strike action is also taking place across national rail services on Tuesday 21, Thursday 23 and Saturday 25 June. There will be a reduced service on the Elizabeth line and London Overground due to the strike, as these services share some track and assets. London Overground will only run from 07:30 until 18:30 on each day. Services that do run are expected to be very busy and may not be able to stop at all stations.  On Thursday 23 and Saturday 25, we will run as much of our network as possible, but disruption is expected on the following sections of line:  Bakerloo line - Queens Park to Harrow & Wealdstone London Overground District line - Richmond and Wimbledon branches Waterloo & City line Elizabeth line Disruption on lines affected by Network Rail strike actions will continue into Friday 24 and Sunday 26 June. Avoid making journeys on affected services until mid-morning each day.    You can find further details on our website.  RMT industrial action Until Sunday 10 July, RMT industrial action will be taking place across London Underground stations. Between these dates, some stations may have to close at short notice due to lack of staff although we are doing everything we can to keep stations open. Night Tube strikes — until Sunday 26 June The planned strike action on Friday and Saturday nights on the Central, Jubilee and Victoria lines between 20:30 and 04:29 the following morning, has been extended until Sunday 26 June. While Night Tube services are still running regularly, if you are using these lines on a Friday or Saturday between 19:00 and 06:00 the next morning, you should check before you travel. For the latest information on how services are expected to run, please visit our website.
