Traffic for London - Events

Dear Mr Stannard, I am writing to give you advance notice of the two major cycling events taking place in London and the South East this summer, continuing our reputation as the world capital of events. Tour de France On Monday 7 July, Stage 3 of the Tour de France, the world’s largest annual sporting event, will start in Cambridge and travel through north, east and central London, passing along the Thames and finishing late afternoon on The Mall. The roads on the route will close from 10:00 for most of the day and will re‑open when safe to do so. Many bus routes will be on diversion and stations along the route will be busier than usual. For more information, including a detailed map of the event route, please visit tfl.gov.uk/tourdefrance Prudential RideLondon On Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 August, this four event festival of cycling takes place across London and Surrey. On the Sunday, the ‘Classic’ and ‘100’ events start at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford and go via the City of London, west London, through Surrey and back through west London finishing on The Mall. There will be road closures from early morning. Many bus routes will be on diversion. More information will be on our website closer to the time.
