Testing Times? Further Disruption To Victoria Line Services
Many of you will remember from last year the early closure of our Victoria Line service as the engineering works to upgrade the line took place. We've now been informed by Transport for London that from Monday 4 February until November the Tube will finish at 10pm Monday-Thursday to enable them to test the new trains on the track.
There will be a replacement bus service from Finsbury Park to Blackhorse Road and Walthamstow Central and at present I am informed the Liverpool St - Chingford service will run as usual. You can download a leaflet detailing the closures and also some weekends when the Victoria Line will not run at all here.
Both Neil Gerrard and myself are frustrated by this sudden action, despite previous assurances that no such closures were proposed. Neil is also writing to London Underground to ensure that there are no simultaneous closures of the Victoria Line and the Liverpool Street-Chingford overground line. I will update this blog as to their response and any details of further disruption.
