Londoners face miserable start after tube delays on Circle, District and Elizabeth Lines
Passengers are facing a second day of travel misery after severe delays hit several London Underground tube lines and the Elizabeth Line.
The Elizabeth Line – know among fans as the Lizzie Line – is having severe delays this morning between Heathrow Terminal 4, Heathrow Terminal 5 and Abbey Wood, and Reading and Abbey Wood.
According to Transport for London, this is due to an electrical fault on the line. There is, however, good service on the rest of the line.
Elsewhere, there are severe delays on the Circle and District lines due to an earlier faulty train at South Kensington. Over on the Jubilee line, there are severe delays due to late finishing of engineering work.
The Metropolitan Line is also facing severe delays between Wembley Park and Aldgate due to late finishing of engineering work.
In slightly better news, the Bakerloo, Central and the rest of Metropolitan line have minor delays. The Bakerloo line is affected by train cancellations, while the minor delays between White City and West Ruislip are due to a faulty train at Perivale.
Certain routes – the Circle, District and Elizabeth line – are accepting tickets on buses and other routes while the problems are fixed.
TfL will be giving more updates on its website.
