London's public transport system is facing disruptions with planned strikes on the Elizabeth line and major closures on the Overground. The first of four 12-hour strikes on the Elizabeth line is scheduled for February 27, jeopardizing service reliability. Additionally, the Windrush line will experience restrictions from February 24 to 25. While many TfL closures are typically announced for weekends, several mid-week disruptions are now being advised, indicating transport uncertainty for daily commuters in the city.
On Thursday, February 27 drivers on the Lizzie line will be going on their first 12-hour strike out of four lined up for the next month. Elizabeth line services will be significantly disrupted and travellers are advised to find alternative routes.
There will likely be last-minute disruptions and cancellations that TfL can't predict, but these are the ones we've been warned about. Most TfL closures happen on the weekend so that there's minimal disruption for commuters.
The Windrush line on the Overground will be closed on Monday, February 24 to Thursday, February 25 at Highbury and Islington to New Cross or New Cross Gate and Clapham Junction, after 9.15pm.
It's tricky to get around London without using any form of public transport - being able to walk to work in this vast city is a rare privilege.
