Here’s the latest I can share based on recent public reports:
-
The District line has planned weekend closures for engineering works affecting western branches (Earl’s Court to Ealing Broadway and Richmond) on multiple weekends through October. This typically involves temporary outages between key stations with replacement bus services in place. These closures are part of ongoing modernization and track work on the line.[1]
-
Additional live or near-term updates often appear closer to each weekend or after TfL publishes revised schedules, so for the very latest weekend-by-weekend status, check TfL’s District line closures page and live service updates.[9][1]
-
If you’re traveling this weekend, consider alternative options such as other Underground lines (e.g., Piccadilly), London Overground connections near affected segments, or planning around off-peak times as advised by TfL during closure periods.[1]
Illustrative example: If a closure is in place between Earl’s Court and Richmond on a given weekend, you’d typically use a combination of Tube alternatives and replacement buses (e.g., DL1, DL3 routes) and allow extra travel time.[3]
Would you like me to pull the very latest specific weekend closure dates and affected segments for the next few weekends, tailored to your location (Prague, CZ) or travel window? I can also set up a quick summary of the upcoming closures with alternate routes.[1]

Questions to the Mayor: Are you happy that TfL have got the advance publicity, and alternative transport services, right? In my view this is often not the case and the approach needs to be regularly reviewed and refreshed for those occasions when closures are necessary.

www.timeout.comQuestions to the Mayor: Examination of the latest line closures programme suggest District line closures for 3 weekends in March, the whole of the Whitsun weekend in May and then at regular intervals through June, July and August that more closures of this stretch of line are required. Can you please supply me with precise details of what work is to be undertaken during these further closures, and again, why this work could not be completed on any of the other 100 weekends the line has been...
