Northern Lne(London Bdg branch) closed 15 Jan-May

[James Barber]

TfL have today stated...The Northern line (Bank branch) will be closed between Kennington and Moorgate from 15 January to mid-May 2022. If you travel in via East Dulwich or Peckham Rye stations to London Bridge you will not have a working Northern Line service from Saturday 15 January until "Mid May".

This enables Bank station upgrade.

During the closure:

There will be no Northern line at Bank, London Bridge, Borough and Elephant & Castle

There will be more Northern line trains on the Charing Cross branch of the Northern line

There will be fewer Northern line trains between Camden Town and Moorgate

Many lines and stations across central London will be busier, especially around the City of London

To get to destinations in the City (including London Bridge, Bank and Moorgate):

Use the District or Circle line from Victoria instead of Embankment

Use Southeastern services from Waterloo East to London Bridge, instead of the Jubilee or Waterloo & City lines from Waterloo

To get to Canary Wharf:

Use the DLR from Bank

Use London Overground from Clapham High Street or Clapham Junction
