Buses and roads
A40 Westway
- Closed westbound between the Marylebone Flyover and the Westway Roundabout following a bus fire at Westbourne Park. The closure continues while engineers assess the flyover; a signed diversion is in place, so allow more time and consider alternative routes.
A23 Streatham Hill
- Limited to one lane in each direction while a new permanent road layout is built. Southbound journeys are particularly slow — for long-distance trips consider the A24 or A3.
Major events this week
- Wimbledon Tennis Championships: continue until Sunday 12 July, 11:00 until 21:00 daily. Large crowds and increased traffic around Wimbledon and Southfields throughout the tournament.
