Londoners are facing travel headaches this lunchtime after a points failure wreaked havoc on four separate Tube lines.

The Circle and Hammersmith & City lines are both entirely suspended because of the issue at Edgware Road station.

There are also severe delays on the Metropolitan line, while the District line is part-suspended for the same reason.

Tickets are being accepted on buses.

Transport for London said of the suspended lines: ‘No service while we fix a points failure at Edgware road. Tickets are being accepted on London Buses.’

This morning, commuters in Bethnal Green were left high and dry after the station was closed due to shortage of staff.

The east London Underground station was shut from about 10.30pm yesterday until it reopened shortly before 7am today.
