Cutty Sark DLR Station Closed Until Spring 2026
Visitors to Greenwich should be aware that the Cutty Sark DLR station is temporarily closed from 31 May 2025 until spring 2026. This closure is necessary to replace the station’s escalators with new, state-of-the-art models, ensuring a fully accessible and reliable service for years to come. While this essential upgrade is underway, it’s important to plan your journey in advance and consider alternative routes to the heart of Greenwich.

Getting to Greenwich: Use Greenwich Station and Thames River Sightseeing

With Cutty Sark DLR out of service, Greenwich station is your best alternative. It’s just an 11-minute walk to the riverside attractions, including the iconic Cutty Sark ship. Clear signage will help guide you between Greenwich station and the town centre.
For a scenic and stress-free journey, why not arrive by river? Thames River Sightseeing offers regular services to Greenwich Pier, delivering you directly to the heart of the action. The riverboat is a fantastic way to enjoy London’s landmarks and arrive refreshed for your day out.
