Olympic Stadium CGI

Transport for London (TfL) has removed certain Olympic Route Network (ORN) restrictions today.

TfL has previously stated that the ORN will be adjusted to meet demand throughout the Games period, for example with restrictions around Wimbledon to be lifted shortly after the Olympic tennis concludes.

Leon Daniels, TfL’s MD for surface transport, says: “More alterations will follow as venues cease operation, and we'll continue to keep Londoners and businesses, including freight, taxi and private hire drivers informed."

The alterations are:

•    Taxis will now be able to turn left and right onto Westminster bridge from Waterloo

•    The left turn for general traffic from Marble Arch to Great Cumberland Place will be reintroduced

•    The left turn from Vernon Place onto A4200 Southampton Row  will be reintroduced

•    The Zebra crossing on Seymour Street will be introduced

This weekend will be the busiest yet during the Olympics with the track & field events commencing at the Olympic Stadium.
