Transport for London (TfL)<\/a> says the first in a series of part closures of the Northern line between Golders Green and Edgware, to facilitate the major upgrade of Colindale Tube station, is next month.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The first planned track closure will take place from Tuesday 2 to Thursday 11 April 2024. There will also be closures of the same section of the line over weekends in June and July this year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

During these closures, there will be no Tube service to or from Brent Cross, Hendon Central, Colindale, Burnt Oak or Edgware Underground stations. Northern line trains will continue to run as normal to and from Golders Green, with a regular service on the rest of the Northern line. Rail replacement bus services will run between Golders Green and Edgware stations, and also to Canons Park station for Jubilee line services, during the track closure periods. Detailed travel advice, including alternative routes, for customers affected by these closures is available on TfL\u2019s website at\u00a0TfL travel advice \u2013 Colindale.<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The part closures are linked to the major upgrade of Colindale Tube station which includes building a larger ticket hall and installing a lift to give the station step-free access for the first time. The station\u2019s major upgrade will mean it has to close from Friday 7 June until December 2024.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The associated part closures of the Northern line are necessary due to the proximity to the track of some of the construction work to upgrade Colindale station \u2013 including piling, crane operation and demolition work \u2013 meaning it cannot be safely carried out when trains are running. During these closures, TfL will also take the opportunity to carry out additional track maintenance and engineering works which will help improve overall services along this section of the Northern line, offering a more reliable and comfortable service for customers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Stuart Harvey, TfL\u2019s Chief Capital Officer, said:\u00a0\u201cI\u2019d like to thank our customers in advance for their patience during these part closures of the Northern line which we appreciate will cause some disruption to people\u2019s journeys. They are essential in order to facilitate the complex work being carried out as part of the major upgrade of Colindale station. We are committed to doing everything we can to ensure that, through our detailed travel advice, customers can plan ahead and are able to complete their journeys using the public transport network.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
