TfL: Elizabeth line delays and 'severe' disruption on two Tube lines

The Central and District lines on the London Underground were experiencing severe delays on Tuesday morning (December 12).

Passengers faced minor delays on the Elizabeth line, as well as on the Hammersmith & City and Jubilee lines, according to Transport for London (TfL)

A train fault on the District line and a shortage of trains on the Central line meant commuters should check before travelling.

Central line

Severe delays on the Central line between White City and West Ruislip/Ealing Broadway and between Leytonstone and Woodford via Newbury Park/Epping due to a shortage of trains. Tickets are being accepted on Local buses, London Overground, Elizabeth Line, Chiltern Railways, Great Western Railway and Greater Anglia. There were minor delays on the rest of the line.

District line

The District Line reported severe delays between Barking and Earl's Court, westbound only, due to an earlier faulty train.

Elizabeth line

Minor delays between Paddington and Shenfield on the Elizabeth line, due to a fault with the signalling system.

Minor delays on the Hammersmith & City line due to an earlier faulty train at Bow Road.

Minor delays due to Jubilee line "train cancellations".
