TfL Announce 24-Hour Weekend Service
Transport for London (TfL) has announced a new 24-hour service on weekends from 12th September 2015.
TfL has said the new Friday and Saturday night service will see six trains per hour running through central London on the Jubilee and Victoria lines, and most of the Piccadilly, Central and Northern lines.
It is understood the service will be operating before England stages the Rugby World Cup.
Critics however, have said the plans have not been properly thought through, and are a "disaster waiting to happen."
