Excel London One Western Gateway Royal Victoria Dock London E16 1XL
London Underground industrial action update
Wednesday 3 June – no action, all services running as normal.
Thursday 4 June – there is planned action on some lines. We recommend planning your journey to Excel in advance and allowing extra time. ExCeL is well served by the Elizabeth line (Custom House station) and the DLR (Prince Regent or Custom House stations). Neither of these services is affected by the strike and, whilst likely to be busier than normal, both will be running – along with buses, London Overground and trams. Lines with no expected service include the Circle line, Piccadilly line, Metropolitan line (Baker Street to Aldgate only) and Central line (White City to Liverpool Street only). For more information, visit Transport for London for live updates on all services.
