Winter Wonderland

Until Thursday 1 January

Hyde Park Winter Wonderland will be open between Friday 14 November and Thursday 1 January.

During this time, nearby Tube stations such as Hyde Park Corner, Green Park and Knightsbridge are expected to be extremely busy with customers arriving at and leaving the event. These stations may be closed or exit-only during busy times to prevent overcrowding.

If you plan to go to Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, consider walking from Paddington, Victoria or Bond Street.

Station updates

Bank and Monument escalator work

Until late 2026, work will take place to replace the two escalators which connect the Northern line platforms with the District and Circle line platforms between Bank and Monument stations.

The usual walking route between these platforms will be closed, so please follow the signs for an alternative route.
Depending on your journey, the alternative route may be at street level. To make sure you pay the correct fare, just touch out as you exit the station and touch back in again as you re-enter.

North Greenwich

Until Thursday 20 November, the lift serving the eastbound platform at North Greenwich will be closed for planned maintenance work. There will be no step-free access to the eastbound platform during this time.

For step-free access to the eastbound Jubilee line from North Greenwich:

Take a westbound train to Canary Wharf and change there for an eastbound service

For a step-free exit at North Greenwich:

Continue to Canning Town and return from there to North Greenwich on a westbound train

Some eastbound Jubilee line trains terminate at North Greenwich. If your train terminates at North Greenwich you will be able to exit the station. Step-free access to the westbound Jubilee line will remain unaffected during this time.

Buses and roads

Bus journeys will be affected by the following changes over the weekend. A bus strike will affect some bus routes in southwest, west and northwest London.

Bus strike

Due to planned strike action, some bus routes in southwest, west and northwest London will be disrupted during the following times:

From 05:00 on Monday 17 until 05:00 on Wednesday 19 November
From 05:00 on Wednesday 26 until 05:00 on Saturday 29 November

During these strikes, little or no service is expected on the following routes: 13 (24hr route), 23 (24hr route), 31, 218, 295 (24hr route), 452 and N31.

All other bus routes, Tube and rail services will run as planned but services in this area may be busier than usual.

Monday 17 November until 2027

A23 Streatham Hill

From Monday 17 November, lane restrictions affecting both directions of the A23 between the junction with Holmewood Road on Brixton Hill and the junction with B221 Sternhold Avenue on Streatham Hill will be updated and may lead to more significant delays in the area.

For short journeys in the local area, consider walking or cycling where possible. Cycle diversions will be available throughout these works, and will be safer and quieter than cycling through the works area on the A23.

If you need to drive in the Streatham area, allow more time for your journey and check before you travel as delays are expected throughout these works. If you’re using the A23 for long distance journeys, use the A24 or A3 instead.

The A23 will also be closed between the junction with the A205 Christchurch Road and the junction with the B221 Sternhold Avenue from 22:00 until 05:00 each night on Sunday 16 and Monday 17 November, so traffic management can be updated safely. Signed diversions will be in place during this closure.

This is due to ongoing work to deliver a new permanent road layout on the A23 Streatham Hill.
