Bank Holidays are the time to plan outings and hang out with friends and family. They’re also the time when TfL likes to get work done. But don’t panic, we’ve done the hard work for you! We’ve checked to see what changes are taking place over both May Bank Holidays so you don’t have to. We’ve looked at the London Underground network, including the Overground, DLR and TfL Rail, to see what’s happening.
The charts for each weekend highlight the days and lines when work is taking place. If there’s a blank space then you can breathe a sigh of relief and continue making those fun Bank holiday plans! But if there is a coloured highlight, read the descriptions underneath for further information.
