Transport for London is set to introduce 16 additional peak weekday shuttle services a day on the Mildmay line from May the 18th.

It’s hoped they will increase customer capacity on this section of route by 20% in the morning peak and 33% in the afternoon peak.

The extra services are being paid for by investors leading the £1.3bn transformation of the historic Olympia which turns 140 this year.

This will include new hotels, bars and restaurants, a new music venue and the largest new theatre in London in 50 years.
