We’re nearing the end of the week which means two things: you can definitely head to the pub after work tonight, and it’s time for us to let you know about all the disruptions to travel you might face this weekend (June 6-8).

There’s loads of things you might be heading off to this weekend. Massive Attack are headlining a brand new festival, LIDO, taking place in east London, the Lambeth Country Show is back in Brockwell Park bringing a taste of rural life to the city, and gardens across the capital are opening up their gates for two days only as part of the London Open Gardens Weekend. Oh, and Beyoncés here. No biggie. You can find out specific details on how to travel to see Queen Bey here.

If you’ll be using any of London’s many public transportation this weekend, here’s what you should be aware of. Of course be aware that last minute changes and disruptions can happen, so always check before you travel on the TFL website or app.

DLR

On both Saturday (June 7) and Sunday (June 8), the DLR will be closed from both Bank and Tower Gateway to Canning Town and Lewisham. On the same days, there will also be no service between Canary Wharf and Stratford. Basically, if it’s dark green on this map, it’s shut this weekend.

A replacement bus service will run between Westferry and Canning town.

Waterloo and City line

You know the drill. There’s no service on weekends on the Waterloo and City line, ever. It runs from 6am on Mondays until half past midnight on Saturday mornings.

Overground

Mildmay line

On Saturday (June 7) and Sunday (June 8), there will be a reduced service on the Mildmay line between Willesden Junction and Camden Road – these trains will only run every 15 minutes.

Additionally, from Camden Road to Stratford, the line will be closed all weekend (June 7 and 8).

Rail replacement bus services will run in places affected by these disruptions. For more info on those, you can check TFL’s website here.
