Festive Travel Advice
TfL services will run throughout Christmas and New Year, but some planned works and service changes will affect some public transport and road travel:
- Some Tube and Rail services are closing earlier on Christmas Eve and no night buses will run into Christmas morning, with last buses on 24-hour services at around midnight
- No service on the majority of public transport on Christmas Day. Dial-a-Ride, Santander Cycles and some coach services will be available
- Most TfL services will be running on Boxing Day
- TfL Rail will be running a reduced service
- Buses will run a Saturday service through the night. Customers who do need to use the transport network should complete their journeys as early as possible and before midnight.
- You must not travel into central London on New Year’s Eve unless this is for work or other legally permitted reasons.
