Piccadilly closures from today
| Londoners face three days of major Tube disruption as a large section of the Piccadilly line shuts. The closure, which began on Tuesday, August 18, is affecting the route between Cockfosters and Uxbridge as Transport for London (TfL) works on upgrading the line for a new fleet of trains. While this section remains closed until Thursday, August 20, trains are still running between Acton Town and Heathrow. TfL is advising passengers heading towards Uxbridge to use the Metropolitan line between Rayners Lane and Uxbridge. District line services between South Kensington and Ealing Common are also advised for affected travellers. To help ease the disruption, three replacement bus services have been put in place. Replacement buses operate: Service PL4: Acton Town – Ealing Common – North Ealing – Hanger Lane (for Central line and Park Royal) – Alperton (Bridgewater Road) – Sudbury Town (Whitton Avenue East) – Sudbury Hill – South Harrow – Rayners Lane; Service PL5: Finchley Central (for Northern line) – Arnos Grove – Southgate – Oakwood – Cockfosters; Service PL6: Finsbury Park – Manor House – Turnpike Lane – Wood Green – Bounds Green – New Southgate (National Rail) – Arnos Grove; |
Upcoming piling works near West Ruislip
| FROM HS2 What we are doing From 1 September to 1 October 2026 at our West Ruislip Portal site, we will be installing sheet piles parallel to the Chiltern Line to prepare the ground for the excavation of shafts, as part of the Ickenham Stream Diversion works. The installation works will be carried out during rail possession hours (1am to 5am Mondays to Fridays and 1pm to 8am Sundays), when no trains are running. In addition, we will be doing preparatory works (from 6pm to 8am Mondays to Sundays) either side of the rail possession hours. HS2 is undergoing a comprehensive reset to ensure it can be built efficiently and for the lowest reasonable cost. This work is being carried out in stages and will be completed in 2026. We will provide you with updates on the reset and what this means for our plans to build the railway in your area. more info https://assets.hs2.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/AWN-Sheet-piling-at-West-Ruislip-Portal-site-1.9.26.pdf |
