Londoners are being urged to check before they travel this weekend because multiple Tube lines will be shut for planned engineering work.

The Piccadilly line faces major disruption overnight between Friday and Saturday, and then on Sunday, the Circle, District, Metropolitan, and Hammersmith and City lines all face closures across various points of the day.

Several London Overground lines are also facing disruption, as is the Elizabeth line.

The closures come just a few weeks after the Piccadilly line was completely shut between Cockfosters and Heathrow as TfL prepares the line for the new fleet of trains.

The disruption also comes as London’s Charing Cross and Waterloo East stations are set to close on Sunday, just days after reopening following a 22-day closure for £20,000,000 worth of upgrades.

So which Tube lines are facing disruption and how will it affect you this weekend?

The Elizabeth Line, named after Britain's reigning monarch Queen Elizabeth II, has been decades in the planning and making and seeks to add 10 percent to central London's creaking rail capacity. Once opened, Crossrail will run from Reading and Heathrow in the west to Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east, via 13 miles of new tunnels in central London.

Bus strikes around the capital

The closures come after passengers faced disruption last weekend and earlier in the week when Arriva bus drivers went on strike, affecting dozens of bus routes across north London and Essex.

Unite the union announced the drivers’ strike earlier this month after a row over working conditions in hot weather, which has gripped the capital throughout the summer and saw the hottest day of the year recorded.

The union, which represents thousands of bus drivers, accused Arriva North London – a TfL contractor – of failing to act on complaints about conditions.

Although additional strikes were planned, they have now been suspended as members of Unite vote on a deal.

If the proposal is rejected, strikes will resume on Tuesday, August 25. Additional strikes are planned throughout September and October.
