Easter Tube Closures: London Underground Lines To Avoid This Bank Holiday Weekend

A very British tradition.

It just wouldn’t be a British bank holiday without the traditional closures of public transport.

This Easter weekend, there will be London Underground service changes and planned works that may well affect your journeys in the capital between Friday 14 April and Monday 17 April.
