Travel information for fans attending Barbarians v All Blacks XV on Sunday

Fans attending the rugby union showpiece Barbarians v All Blacks XV at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday (kick-off 2pm) are asked to take note of the following travel information…

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is highly accessible by public transport.

It is served by four stations (White Hart Lane, Northumberland Park, Tottenham Hale and Seven Sisters) providing access to London Overground, London Underground, Greater Anglia services and numerous TfL buses.

There is ample cycle parking around the stadium. Walking routes to and from the stadium to stations and coach parks are all clearly signposted.  Stewards will also be on hand to answer any questions.

Wherever fans are travelling from, particularly if they have never been to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before, we recommend using this detailed travel advice and the information below to plan their journey in advance.

Stations

Information on the location and distances from the stadium to each of the four stations serving the area can be found here…

Tottenham Hale

Tottenham Hale is a fully accessible station with access to and between Victoria line and Greater Anglia services. Greater Anglia platforms are fully accessible from the concourse, which has entry and exit ramps.

Fans using the Victoria line, including wheelchair users and those with limited mobility, are advised to use Tottenham Hale rather than Seven Sisters as it is a shorter journey to and from the stadium.

White Hart Lane

London Overground services will operate four trains per hour in both directions throughout the day, with all trains consisting of eight carriages.

Supporters travelling to Liverpool Street post-match are advised that Northumberland Park services have equal capacity to those from White Hart Lane and are faster because they have fewer stops.

White Hart Lane is a fully accessible station.

Northumberland Park

Six trains per hour will call at Northumberland Park in each direction throughout the day. Of these, two per hour will be from and to Stansted Airport, Hertford East and Cambridge respectively, while four per hour will be from and to Liverpool Street with two per hour from and to Stratford.

Fans are advised to use Northumberland Park if using Greater Anglia services as it is a shorter distance to the stadium than Tottenham Hale.

All train services are shown on www.nationalrail.co.uk.

Seven Sisters

Victoria line services will be operating three minutes in both directions pre and post-game.

One of the station’s escalators will not be in operation on Sunday and the western Ticket Hall will be closed, which will cause delays when changing between London Underground and London Overground services.

Pre-match, the Birstall Road diversion route will be in place at Seven Sisters for interchange between the Victoria line and London Overground services to avoid congestion on the northbound platform.

Supporters using the Victoria line are strongly advised to use Tottenham Hale rather than Seven Sisters, particularly post-match when access at Seven Sisters will be significantly reduced and interchange to London Overground services will be delayed by up to 10 minutes.

Queue management

Queue management systems will be in place at all stations. Supporters are asked to respect and work with staff at our stations.

Elizabeth line

The Elizabeth line now operates through central London from Berkshire and west London to east London and Essex. Direct connections from Reading and Heathrow to Liverpool Street no longer require an interchange at Paddington.

Road closures

Please note, our major event day road closure measures will be in place – details here…

TFL Buses

Prior to the game the W3 will follow its normal route but the 149, 259, 279 and 349 services will be diverted away from the High Road at least two hours before the game. Supporters are advised to check for delays due to roadworks before travelling.

Post-game, the TfL bus services will return to normal operation as soon as possible after the local road closures are lifted. More information on road closures can be found above.

Maps of bus routes can be found here…

TfL buses accept cashless payments only.

Cycling

For supporters wishing to cycle to the stadium, bike stands are available at Tottenham Community Sports Centre which is located on the High Road. Dedicated bicycle parking is also available on-street around the stadium.

Although our Bag Policy still applies, stewards will be briefed regarding cyclists’ need to carry helmets, puncture kits and removable seats into the stadium.

Maps of the Cycling Superhighway route and cycle parking can be found here…

Shuttle Buses

The stadium’s Shuttle Bus services will not be operating for this event.
