Transport for London (TfL) has announced that no services will run on the Bakerloo line between Queen’s Park and Harrow & Wealdstone on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 November 2026. The closure is part of wider planned works across the London transport network.
Northern Line Station Closure
Piccadilly line halted between Rayners Lane and Uxbridge, commuters lose service
TfL also reports no Waterloo & City trains, Central line delays and a Tramlink outage as staff shortages and signal faults ripple through the network.
Separately, Burnt Oak station on the Northern line will be closed from Sunday 1 November 2026. This closure is to allow for works to install step-free access. TfL has advised passengers travelling to or from Edgware, or needing to connect to southbound Northern line trains at Colindale, to use bus routes 204 or N5.
The disruption comes as TfL prepares for a busy winter period with increased passenger numbers expected for events such as fireworks displays and festive light switch-ons.
