Northern line services face disruption

8:18am Saturday 10th May 2008

Passengers on the Tube this weekend should allow extra time for their journeys, as part of the network through the borough is closed due to the multi million pound investment programme.

The Northern line will be partly suspended between Golders Green and Camden Town all weekend while track improvements are carried out.

A replacement bus service will operate between Golders Green and Mornington Crescent calling at all stations, and additionally at Finchley Road for Jubilee line connections.

London Underground is undertaking the major programme of renewal as part of Transport for London's (TfL) £10 billion Investment Programme.

A spokesman for TfL said: "Tube, London Overground and Docklands Light Railway improvement works will inevitably result in some disruption for passengers, but TfL is working hard to provide information and alternative travel options.

"The work is essential to provide for London's growing transport needs now, and into the future.

"TfL is urging all Londoners and Tube, London Overground and DLR passengers to "check before you travel" at weekends, allowing extra journey time where necessary."
