Service changes

Improved timetable from Monday 7 April

_{Last updated: Monday 17 March, 2025}

We're making changes to our timetable to improve your journey experience. These updates include increased services, new stops, and minor frequency adjustments.

The new timetable will come into effect on Monday, 7 April 2025 and will affect all routes and all piers. Below are the key updates:

Pier name updates

To better reflect their locations in London, two piers will be renamed:

• Plantation Wharf Pier will become St Mary’s Wandsworth Pier.
• Doubletree Docklands Pier will become Rotherhithe Pier.

Please note that Doubletree Docklands Pier is now closed as we prepare to launch the UK’s first electric cross-river ferry between Canary Wharf and Rotherhithe. Click here to find out more.

Weekday service main updates

• Following customer feedback, all AM RB6 sailings will now operate between Putney and Canary Wharf piers.
• During off-peak, extra RB6 sailings are being introduced between Putney and Battersea Power Station piers increasing the frequency of the RB6 off-peak to every 30 minutes (previously hourly).
• RB6 off-peak sailings will now stop hourly at St Mary’s Wandsworth Pier (previously Plantation Wharf Pier).
• The 05:50 and 06:20 RB1, from North Greenwich Pier to Barking Riverside Pier, have been removed, but a new 06:30 sailing has been added, ensuring passengers can arrive at Barking Riverside before 07:00.

Weekend service main updates

• The RB6 route is being introduced on weekends, running every 30 minutes (previously hourly) between Putney and North Greenwich piers.
• The RB6 service will now stop at St Mary’s Wandsworth Pier (previously Plantation Wharf Pier).
• Changes to the RB2 route have been made to enhance services to and from Battersea Power Station Pier:
  • Westbound: direct service from Embankment to Battersea Power Station;
  • Eastbound: RB2 will stop at St George Wharf (Vauxhall) and Millbank before continuing to Embankment.
