H&C Line Upgrade from Early 2018

S Class train at Hammersmith
According to Transport for London, service on the Hammersmith & City and Circle lines will improve early next year, following testing of a new digital signalling system. 

TFL says the new system will allow trains to run closer together, meaning a more frequent service, and shorter waiting times.

ASLEF , RMT, TSSA, and UNITE - in short, all the London Underground train driver unions, are on strike from 6pm tonight, continuing into Thursday July 9. The whole of the London Underground system will grind to a halt. Time to plan for the worst - and remember that the roads will be even busier than usual. If you can, work from home on Thursday.

Tube Strike Planned for Wednesday 8 July at 9.30pm

ASLEF have called for a Tube strike starting at 9.30pm on Wednesday July 8, continuing into Thursday July 9. If the strike goes ahead, it will likely bring the whole of London Underground (and the rest of the city) to a halt. Luckily for us in Shepherd's Bush, we still have plenty of buses and also access to the Overground network, which will not be affected. And, of course, there are Boris Bikes.
