Crouch Hill station is shut for the day. Transport for London says the Suffragette line — the Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside route through Crouch End and Stroud Green — has no service anywhere along the line today, Sunday 13 September, for planned engineering work. Replacement buses are running, and TfL suggests Victoria line connections at Seven Sisters, Blackhorse Road and Walthamstow Central instead.

Normal service is due back on Monday morning. For a line that closes for engineering more Sundays than most Londoners would tolerate, the honest advice is to allow an extra half hour or walk down to Finsbury Park and take the Victoria line.

The facts
  • There is no service on the whole Suffragette line all day on Sunday 13 September because of planned engineering work.
  • Replacement buses are operating during the closure.
  • TfL advises using Victoria line connections between Seven Sisters, Blackhorse Road and Walthamstow Central.
  • The closure period runs to just before midnight on Sunday, with service expected to resume Monday.
