This weekend will see the re-introduction of the Night Tube on the Northern Line, TfL has announced.
TfL said that services on the line would resume from Saturday in a further boost to the capital’s night-time economy.
Night Tube services returned on the Central and Victoria lines in November 2021. This was further bolstered in May by the return of the Jubilee line. TfL also plan to reopen Piccadilly line Night Tube services this summer.
TfL said that RMT strike action across Night Tube services, which began in January, will continue until December this year when the union’s mandate for industrial action ends. However, they claimed it would cause “minimal disruption” with at least two trains per hour running on the Central Line.
The resumption of Northern line Night Tube services had been aided by a doubling in the frequency of trains on the Northern Line Extension between Kennington and Battersea Power Station, TfL said. There are now twelve trains running per hour during peak times.
