The double Easter bank holiday is upon us! You’ve checked the weather (in short: it’s not great but not bad either), you’re ready for an Easter egg hunt, maybe you’re eyeing up some free stuff to see and do. So, how’re the trains looking?

Due to the lack of commuters, the four-day stretch from Good Friday to Easter Monday is often a prime target for engineering works on London’s trains and tubes. This Easter weekend is no different: several major TfL services will be severely disrupted over the coming days. Notably, Euston will shut for six whole days.

Worried about getting around the capital over the Easter bank holiday weekend? Here’s what you need to know about planned transport disruption.
