TfL this weekend November 24-26: Elizabeth line, Tube and Overground closures planned

Londoners travelling into the capital this weekend could be faced with disruption due to closures on TfL services.

Transport for London (TfL) has asked Londoners to check before they travel this weekend.

To get the most latest updates on the Underground, DLR and Overground you can use the TfL app or website.

Here is the full list of planned TfL service changes this weekend, November 24 to 26.

Elizabeth line

No service between Hayes & Harlington and Heathrow 

Parts of the Elizabeth line will be closed on Saturday November 25 and Sunday November 26 as essential maintenance works are completed by Heathrow Airport, Network Rail and TfL. 

This means there will be no Elizabeth line or Heathrow Express trains to Heathrow Airport on both of those days.

Piccadilly line trains will be operating between central London and Heathrow as normal, serving Heathrow Terminals 2 & 3 and Terminal 4, but TfL says they are likely to be busier than usual and no trains will run to or from Heathrow Terminal 5.

An inter-terminal transfer bus service will be running between Terminals 2 & 3 and Terminal 5, starting from Heathrow Central Bus station. 

No service between Paddington and Abbey Wood

There will be no service between Paddington and Abbey Wood all weekend (November 25 and 26) while planned maintenance including work to deliver mobile coverage takes place.

As Liverpool Street and Whitechapel Elizabeth line stations will be closed for the maintenance works, Elizabeth line services will run between Shenfield and Liverpool Street National Rail station all weekend.

On Saturday November 25 Elizabeth line trains from the west will terminate at Paddington National Rail station where customers can change for the Bakerloo, Circle, District and Hammersmith & City lines as well as local buses.

On Sunday November 26, due to Network Rail signalling upgrades and work for HS2 at Old Oak Common, rail replacement buses will run west of Ealing Broadway in the morning with limited train services starting later in the day. 

Paddington National Rail station will be closed all day, so customers travelling into London, from the west of England will all need to change at Ealing Broadway for services into central London on the Central or District lines.

Piccadilly line

The Piccadilly line is closed between Acton Town and Uxbridge on November 25 and 26 for track replacement work.

The Metropolitan line will still operate to Uxbridge as usual, and rail replacement buses will run between Rayners Lane and Acton Town.

There will be no Piccadilly line service between Heathrow Terminals 23 and Heathrow Terminal 5 on November 25 and 26. Connecting replacement buses will operate.

London Overground

There will be no service between Highbury & Islington and New Cross / Clapham Junction / Crystal Palace / West Croydon on November 25 and 26.
