News from the City's traffic management team


Moorgate will be closed to southbound traffic between 8pm on Saturday 28 May until 29 May 2016. So we can expect tailbacks in the Beech Street tunnel. It'll mainly be on Sunday so probably not so bad.  


On Monday 30 May The Vitality 10K race will reusult in closures in The City and Westminster. Nothing in our immediate area unless you count Cheapside. There's a map here




On  Saturday 4 June the London Nocturne will result in road closures for most of the day some of which might inconvenience residents. There's details here.
