Description

Urgent repairs to the track between Hayes & Harlington and Heathrow Terminals 2 & 3 means that some lines towards Heathrow Airport are blocked. As a result, a reduced service will be operation.

This is expected until 09:00.

Elizabeth line customer advice:

Elizabeth line services will continue to run to all terminals at Heathrow Airport, but at a reduced frequency. Some services may terminate early at Hayes & Harlington, or divert to West Drayton.

Please allow extra time for your journey to or from Heathrow Airport, monitor departure boards, and listen to announcements at stations and onboard trains for any changes to services.

Please allow for short notice alterations and platform changes and listen to Elizabeth line station announcements or ask a member of staff for further information.

Heathrow Express customer advice:

A half hourly service is expected to run.

Additional information:

Due to urgent repairs to one of the lines leading into Heathrow Airport, Elizabeth line and Heathrow Express services are needing to share a line, meaning fewer trains are able to run.
