Jubilee Line closures update

Tube users (that's most of us!) will be unsurprised to hear that the Jubilee line will continue to suffer from weekend closures up until Easter, although it looks like services southbound from  West Hampstead will only be affected on one weekend.
 
Councillors have just been sent the following table from TfL (via the Council).

A cross means the section is closed - grey means that part of the line is open.

We certainly hope so!
