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.

Paddington Tube station lift maintenance

Until Saturday 15 November, planned lift maintenance work will take place at Paddington Tube station, on the lift that runs between the Bakerloo line platforms and the tunnel link to the Elizabeth line. During this time, step-free access between the Bakerloo and Elizabeth lines will not be available via the link tunnel. If you require step-free access to change between lines, you will need to travel via the National Rail concourse. Alternative step-free options between the Bakerloo and Elizabeth lines From the Bakerloo to the Elizabeth line
  • Take the lift at the front end of the southbound Bakerloo line platform to the Paddington Square ticket hall and follow the signs to the National Rail concourse
  • Cross the concourse towards platform 1 and follow the signs for the Elizabeth line, where step-free access will be available
  • To make sure you pay the correct fare, just touch out as you exit and touch back in again as you enter
From the Elizabeth line to the Bakerloo line
  • Take the lift from the Elizabeth line platforms and exit at the Eastbourne Terrace level
  • Cross the National Rail concourse and use the Paddington Square entrance to the Underground, where a lift is available to take you to the ticket hall level
  • To make sure you pay the correct fare, just touch out as you exit and touch back in again as you enter
  • From the Paddington Square ticket hall, an alternative lift is available to the Bakerloo line platforms
Please allow up to 15 minutes extra time for your journeys.

North Greenwich

Tuesday 18 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.

Line-by-Line updates

Piccadilly Line

Tuesday 11 until Wednesday 12 November
No service between Rayners Lane and Uxbridge all day to prevent damage to train wheels caused by expected significant leaf fall. Please use the Metropolitan line.
Weaver line (London Overground)
The following closures are due to Network Rail maintenance work.
Monday 10 until Thursday 13 November
No service between Hackney Downs and Enfield Town/Cheshunt after 22:45 each night Use alternative Tube, local or rail replacement bus services.

Buses and roads

Bus journeys will be affected by the following changes over the weekend. We expect to run a good service, but buses may be delayed, diverted or stop short of their normal destination.
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 further delays expected.
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.
