TfL Tube: Delays on Circle line, District line and Hammersmith & City line

Three Tube lines were experiencing severe delays on Thursday morning (August 22).

Transport for London (TfL) said the delays on the Circle, District and Hammersmith & City lines, largely downgraded to “minor” shortly after 8am, are due to earlier faulty trains.

There were also minor delays on the Central line and planned part closures of the London Overground from Euston and the Docklands Light Railway.

Passengers can check the TfL website before travelling.
