The programme commences this summer to be completed in time for the London 2012 Olympics, and will not interrupt normal operation of the attraction.
As each capsule is removed, it will travel down the Thames to Silvertown in London's docklands where it will be loaded onto a truck and transported to a workshop in Worcester to be upgraded before returning to the London Eye.
