TfL Tube delays: Rush hour misery as District, Circle and London Overground lines part suspended
Commuters are facing rush hour misery this morning with several lines part-suspended, causing severe delays.
Passengers planning on using the District line on Monday morning will be worst affected as there is no service eastbound between Earls Court and Whitechapel due to a signal failure at Gloucester Road.
This has caused severe delays on the rest of the line and people are being urged to use other modes of transport including buses, and other train lines.
The Circle Line is also part-suspended due to the same signal failure at Gloucester Road.
Severe delays between Edgware Road and Earls Court and between Earls Court and Wimbledon / Richmond / Ealing Broadway and eastbound between Earls Court and Tower Hill due to a signal failure at Gloucester Road.
