What are you up to in London this weekend (November 21-23)? Catching some dazzling musical talent at the EFG London Jazz Festival? Perusing the new West Anderson retrospective at the Design Museum? Getting ahead (or soaking up seasonal vibes) with some Christmas shopping?
Those who’re planning to be out and about in the city over the coming days will be glad to hear that there will be substantially less travel disruption to navigate than there was last weekend (when both the Elizabeth line and Heathrow Express were not serving Heathrow). There are, however, still several major closures and schedule changes to know about.
Here’s what you need to know about planning disruption on TfL transport services in London this weekend, November 21-23.
