I don't think they actually close Coventry Garden on Saturday
afternoons any more, do they? (Checks TfL site: no they don't; the
Tube Map simply states that the station gets very busy and
suggests alternatives.)


Covent Garden is 'Way Out only' at all times until the end of the year.


*Really*?! Then it shows that TfL's encouragement to use other
stations to get there works; despite spending a lot of time in CG it's
ages since I've used the tube station there!

Interestingly, there's nothing to this effect on the downloadable Tube
Map (which was where I checked for my original posting). I had to go
to Live Travel News to find the closure. (Not that I didn't believe
you, Bob!)
