Rail

There are no planned rail closures on TfL services affecting east London during the week.

On Saturday and Sunday, there will be no service on the Docklands Light Railway from Stratford International and to Woolwich Arsenal due to planned engineering work.

Watch out for revised c2c service times on the Rainham line on the Saturday.

There will be no service on the c2c Rainham line on the Sunday, due to Network Rail doing overhead line work between Barking and Grays. 

Rail replacement buses will run between Upminster and Grays via Rainham and passengers travelling to or from Dagenham Dock can use their tickets on TfL bus routes EL2 or 287.

Road

In Tower Hamlets, delays are likely in Cable Street at the start of the week as works by UK Power Networks conclude, with traffic control measures in place.
