Train and Tube services will be cut again next month during nine days of major rail upgrades.

Just a month ago, work took place over a 20-mile stretch in north London, which closed several stations.

Network Rail has now confirmed that another week-long closure is scheduled between February 11 to February 19.

The scale of work will mean that the Bakerloo line between Queen’s Park and Harrow & Wealdstone and the London Overground between Euston and Watford Junction will be closed.

On the Bakerloo line this will affect 10 stations within Brent and Harrow, while the Overground will affect stations near Watford, Harrow, Brent and South Hampstead.

The nine-day closure will continue the improvements begun over December to remaining stations, track and line-side equipment.

Upgrades in last month saw 6,000 modern concrete sleepers installed, slight station makeovers, cable replacements and power supply improvements.

James Dean, Network Rail’s West Coast South route director, said: “We’re really grateful to passengers for their patience while we closed the railway just before Christmas so we could carry out these essential projects.

“It enabled us to bring sections of track right into the 21st Century with new equipment which is much more reliable and robust. We were also able to transform five stations making them cleaner and brighter – I hope people enjoy using them much more as a result.

“Next month we’ll be returning to carry out even more work to improve the Bakerloo line and London Overground for the future.”
