Victoria Line to close early in 09
Remember in 2007 when the dreaded early closure of the Victoria Line was due to end, then 2008 arrived and it was announced it would be closing at 10pm again all the way until November. Now BBC London has revealed that the early closures are likely to restart after a brief pause for Christmas and New year.
No details are available yet, but expect pretty much the same as this year, and BBC London reports that upgrade work will not be fully complete until 2012.
Read the full story on BBC London, including a look at the new trains, although there are no answers as what to do when you forget and turn up at the tube station at 10.01 expecting to get home.

Obiously no one running this line lives here.
I moved to a place with a tube which has not run ever since .
It’s OK to see friends elsewhere only on a friday - but as you’ve noticed we are fenced in all weekend for most of September.
What use is a bus replacement when the tube annocements are ” we are hoping for a bus service from manor house !!”
I also moved to a quiet area with promise of regeneration not to a potential sink estate plus waste site . Is that why the tubes won’t run , cos they think no one will want to get of at Blackhorse Lane ??
