Over the last week London has been basking in a heatwave with temperatures approaching 30 degrees Celsius.

While that means beer gardens with friends and trips to the lido, for commuters it’s stifling hot Tube journeys.

As many lines do not have air-conditioning, travelling around the capital is a challenge in the heat.

To help commuters out the Citymapper app has introduced a new feature that shows which routes through the capital are fully air conditioned.

To find this new tool, search your destination as usual and scroll down to the ‘with air conditioning’, for cooler journeys.

Transport for London (TfL) is also advising customers to take a bottle of water with them on their travels.
