From: "OneHourLater" Sent: Friday, April 28, 2006 7:38 PM Subject: 'Weekend Tubes': decision on later start and finish times Thank you for taking part in our consultation about whether the Tube should run later at weekends. We have now made the decision about the scheme and can feedback to you. We received strong support for a later night Tube but concerns were raised about the effects of a later start, particularly on Sunday mornings, as the Tube already starts later than other days of the week. As a result, we developed an alternative scheme: * Running half an hour later on Friday and Saturday nights. * Starting one hour later on Saturday mornings. This left Sunday mornings unchanged, enabling two thirds of those originally affected by a later weekend start to continue to use the Tube. We have now decided to run the Tube half an hour later on Friday and Saturday nights and start it one hour later on Saturday mornings from the end of May 2007. Friday and Saturday nights On Friday and Saturday nights, last Tubes will leave the West End at around 01:00 instead of 00:30. (A small group of stations that currently close earlier than others and will continue to do so. These include stations on the Metropolitan Line north of Harrow-on-the-Hill, Bakerloo Line north of Queen's Park, intermediate stations on the Woodford-Hainault loop of the Central Line as well as Heathrow T4, Kensington Olympia and Cannon Street. Please see our website http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/initiative...ter/faqs.asp#4 for more details). Some sections of track and stations are owned and controlled by Network Rail and/or National Rail Train Operating Companies and we are discussing how to apply the scheme to them. Saturday and Sunday mornings The Tube will start one hour later on Saturday mornings. First trains will arrive at central London stations at around 07:00. Sundays will remain unchanged, so first trains will still arrive at central London stations at around 07:30. Consultation issues and further information For more information about the consultation results and our decision please visit our website http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/initiative.../onehourlater/. Please call 020 7126 3920 if you have any queries or would like this information in any other language or format.
