Customers using the London Overground routes from Richmond and Clapham Junction to Stratford will benefit from a more regular service from Monday 16 December, as frequency is increased during the morning and evening peak to meet growing demand.

Services will increase from four to five trains per hour on both the Richmond and Clapham Junction branches, providing a more frequent ten train per hour service on the busiest part of the route between Willesden Junction and Stratford.

The introduction of these additional trains will also enable a more even service to operate on both branches at peak times.  They will also help ensure services can run on the whole of the route to Richmond.

Rory O'Neill, TfL's General Manager for London Overground, said: "Customer numbers continue to grow on these routes and these additional trains will help ensure we can continue meet growing demand."
