Snow in London: ‘Severe delays’ on Overground, Jubilee, Central and Northern lines - how bad is disruption?

Tube passengers are facing delays and disruption on the London Underground network as snow has hit the capital today.

There have been reports of passengers waiting up to an hour for a train, according to LBC.

Severe delays are in place on the Central, Jubilee, London Overground and the Northern lines.

While minor delays are operating on the Circle, District, Hammersmith and City, Piccadilly and Victoria lines.

And the Central, District and Overground lines are running with part suspensions in force.

TfL says valid tickets will be accepted on London buses “via any reasonable route”.

On the Overground there is no service between Watford and Euston, Surrey Quays and Clapham Junction, and from Sydenham to West Croydon.

This is due to “heavy snow and ice on the track”.

The Central line has no service between Woodford and Epping due to emergency engineering work at Loughton, with serious delays on the rest of the line.

Travellers on the Jubilee Line are experiencing severe delays due to an earlier signal failure.

And the Northern Line is severely delayed as a result of signal failures caused by ice on the track.

A TfL spokesperson said this morning: “London transport is impacted this morning by overnight snow and freezing temperatures.

“Check your journey in advance and allow more time to travel https://tfl.gov.uk.”

There are also currently road closures on the A13, the A20, the A24, the A4, the north circular [A406] and the inner ring road [A202, A302] Victoria Street (SW1E), in Westminster.

Severe delays are also in operation on several rail lines in and out of London.

Passengers on the East Midlands Railway, Gatwick Express, South Western Railway, Southeastern, Southern, Thameslink may experience disruption.
