Transport for London (TfL) is closing Cutty Sark DLR station for nearly a year starting Saturday, May 31, to replace four unreliable escalators that had become uneconomical to repair. Due to the complexity of the installation and limited space at the station, maintaining operations during repairs is not feasible. Customers are advised to use Greenwich station nearby and alternative transport during the closure. TfL's decision also stems from issues related to sourcing custom parts, worsened by pandemic-related delays in manufacturing.
TfL has announced the closure of Cutty Sark DLR station for nearly a year to replace its unreliable escalators.
The existing escalators were taken out of service due to being beyond economical repair, necessitating a complete replacement.
Maintaining station operations during the works isn't feasible due to limited space, leading to a full closure.
To minimize disruption, TfL will replace all four escalators simultaneously and guide customers to nearby transport alternatives.
