An entire Tube line is suspended and the Elizabeth line can’t reach Heathrow Airport
Londoners are facing travel disruption amid a signal fault, hot weather precautions and lingering flooding following this morning’s ‘explosive’ thunderstorm. Elizabeth line trains are not currently running between Heathrow Terminals 2&3 and Heathrow Terminal 4 due to water from heavy rain.
Tram services are also running behind schedule between Sandilands and Elmers End and Beckenham Junction for the same reason, with passengers encouraged to find an alternative route. Additionally, a signal failure is causing severe delays on the London Underground network.
The entire Circle line is suspended, with the District, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & City line all suspended in places. It is unclear when service will return to normal.
Transport for London has also reduced service on the Mildmay line in response to the forecasted hot weather.
