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.’
