Staircase works affecting Old Street station in September

The staircase to and from the Old Street tube station on the corner of City Road and Old Street will be closed for five weeks from Tuesday 29 August to Friday 29 September 2023. This is for work needed as part of the station improvements.

All passengers will be diverted up the main staircase and through the new main entrance during these works. Moorfields patients will need to walk across the paved area at the top of these stairs, then turn right in front of Serata Hall restaurant and the Shoreditch Grind and walk a further 100m to return to the green line that leads to Moorfields’ main entrance.

Signage and station announcements will help guide you at all times. TfL is also providing marshals in the station to help our patients from 8.00am – 4.00pm, Monday to Friday and 8.00am – 2.00pm, Saturday.

Further details of the works are available through the TfL Old Street works webpage.
