π° In a nutshell

π Tube
Tue 2 & Thu 4
- β οΈ Expect severe disruption on all lines, all day
- π There will be particularly limited service before 6:30 and after 21:00 - avoid travelling during these hours
- β The following lines are expected to have no service:
- Piccadilly & Circle lines
- Metropolitan line between Baker Street and Aldgate
- Central line between White City and Liverpool Street
π‘ We'll always show you the Tube services which are running, but these will fall into our Pretty Risky section (more info below!π)
β Elizabeth line, Overground, DLR, trams and buses
Other TfL services will be running normally.
π Services that do run are likely to be extremely busy. Stations shared with underground services may be impacted by overcrowdedness and lack of staff, leading to unexpected closures.
Journey planning is strike-ready in the app β
Strike Safe π€ Pretty Risky: Introducing our new section!
In addition to our old reliable Strike Safe, we have a new section: Pretty Risky π Details on both below...
π Strike Safe: when you must get there! Shows only the fully operating services (although note that these will be very busy!)
π¬ Pretty Risky: when you're feeling adventurous... Here we'll show you tube lines which are technically running, but have high likelihood of disruption. We'll tell you the most up-to-date information we have, but expect long waits, delays and very crowded platforms.
We've got you!
Two wheels (or feet) to the rescue
If you're able, you could skip the crowd for a breezy ride! Hop on a π΄ scooter, π² bike, or π walk.
Here for you, London! π«Ά
We'll be working round the clock to keep the app up to date and keep London moving in these tricky situations.
