It looks like more buses (although perhaps not 8,000 extra) but in
fact they're just just running shorter routes. I had to get the 29
from Trafalgar Square to Wood Green earlier on today.


Oof, that doesn't sound like fun. Green Lanes can get fairly congested
at the best of times, so if you need to come back later and the
Piccadilly Line is still mostly suspended, you may have a better time
with a train from Alexandra Palace to Kings Cross. (Ally Pally station
is ~10 minutes walk, or you can grab the W3 or 184 along Station Road.)


Agreed - take the train!
