Travel information | Spurs vs Nottingham Forest, including details of TfL track closures

Fans attending our Premier League match against Nottingham Forest at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday (kick-off 6pm) are advised to take note of the following travel information, which includes details of TfL track closures...

Club announcement - 7 April - updated 2.15pm

Following an incident in which an individual has lost their life, we are doing everything to accommodate the ongoing Police investigation, which is of the utmost importance.

This afternoon's Premier League fixture against Nottingham Forest will go-ahead as scheduled, however the whole of Northumberland Park Road and Vicarage Road, as well as the north end of Worcester Avenue, will remain closed throughout.

We shall update supporters as and when we can, and ask for fans to be patient and allow extra travel time.

Our thoughts are with the victim’s family and all those affected.

Supporters should note that queues will be longer than usual at White Hart Lane Station post-match due to shorter trains on Sunday.

Scheduled track closures

There are several scheduled track closures on Sunday across the London Overground Network.

There will be no service between:

• Gospel Oak and Stratford
• Highbury & Islington and Dalston Junction.
• Surrey Quays and Clapham Junction
• Willesden Junction and Clapham Junction

Stations

Please note that Bruce Grove and Silver Street stations will be closed two hours post-match on Sunday 7 April.

White Hart Lane

Four trains per hour are expected to call at White Hart Lane in both directions throughout the day. All trains will be made up of four carriages with longer queues to be expected post-match.

Due to shorter trains post-match, supporters travelling to Liverpool Street are reminded that Northumberland Park services have greater capacity to those from White Hart Lane and are faster because they have fewer stops.

White Hart Lane is a fully accessible station.

Tottenham Hale

Tottenham Hale is a fully accessible station with access to and between Victoria line and Greater Anglia services. Greater Anglia platforms are fully accessible from the concourse, which has entry and exit ramps.

Supporters using the Victoria line, including wheelchair users and those with limited mobility, are advised to use Tottenham Hale rather than Seven Sisters as it is a shorter journey to and from the stadium.

Northumberland Park

Greater Anglia will operate four trains per hour northbound pre-match between Liverpool Street and Hertford East and Liverpool Street and Audley End. Additionally, the half-hourly northbound Stansted Express trains will call at Northumberland Park after the match to provide six trains per hour.

There will be eight trains per hour operating southbound via Northumberland Park throughout the day. Of these, two trains per hour will operate each way between Liverpool Street and Hertford East, Liverpool Street and Audley End. There will also be four trains per hour between Liverpool Street and Stansted Airport.

Supporters are advised to use Northumberland Park if using Greater Anglia services as it is a shorter distance to the stadium than Tottenham Hale.

Seven Sisters

Victoria line services will be operating every 2-3 minutes in both directions pre and post-match.

Pre-match, the Birstall Road diversion route will be in place at Seven Sisters station for interchange between the Victoria line and London Overground services to avoid congestion on the northbound platform.

Queue management

Queue management systems will be in place at all stations. Supporters are asked to respect and work with staff at our stations and follow their instructions at all times.

At each station, the support staff provided are in contact with the Station Managers and platform staff who will direct them as to when it is necessary to put in place and release ‘queue holds’. It is therefore essential that you follow their guidance for both your own safety and the safety of those around you.

The Club does not tolerate any form of abuse towards the teams that are located at these transport hubs to assist you on your homeward journeys and reserves the right to take appropriate action against anyone found to be acting in an aggressive and/or abusive manner towards staff.

We thank you for your co-operation.

Shuttle buses

Supporters are reminded that the Club operates a free Shuttle Bus service from Wood Green (Piccadilly Line) and Alexandra Palace (Great Northern) stations to the stadium.

The Great Northern line will operate at five trains per hour each way through Alexandra Palace throughout the day.

Cycling

For supporters wishing to cycle to the stadium, bike stands are available at Tottenham Community Sports Centre and St Francis De Sales School, which are both located on the High Road. Dedicated bicycle parking is also available on-street around the stadium.

Although our Bag Policy still applies, stewards will be briefed regarding cyclists’ need to carry helmets, puncture kits and removable seats into the stadium.

Road closures

Please note, our major event day road closure measures will be in place.

TfL bus services will return to normal operation as soon as possible after the local road closures are lifted. More information on road closures can be found below.
