Tottenham Hotspur
We should like to give fans advance notice that there will be travel disruption for our Emirates FA Cup third round tie against Portsmouth on Saturday 7 January (kick-off 12.30pm).
Our domestic travel partner, Big Green Coach, is offering an expanded Regional Coach Service to assist supporters whose usual public transport routes will not be available for the fixture.
Details on locations and how to book can be found below...
Industrial action
Nationwide industrial action by RMT union on 7 January will affect rail services across the country, including Greater Anglia and London Overground.
No London Overground services will be running through White Hart Lane. Due to the early kick-off, it may be possible for supporters to use Greater Anglia services pre and post-match, though service levels are yet to be confirmed.
London Underground services are not affected by the industrial action and the Victoria line is expected to operate every three minutes in both directions throughout the day.
Supporters are strongly advised to plan their journey in advance.
Bus and Shuttle Bus services
TfL buses will be running as normal, with a matchday diversion due to road closures, and the matchday Shuttle Buses from Wood Green and Alexandra Palace stations will be in operation.
