Passengers on these routes should expect significant disruption or no service at all during the strike period. The action follows a dispute about working in hot weather conditions.

Tube line closures and delays

On the London Underground, minor delays have been reported on the Central, Circle, and Victoria Lines. In addition, there are two partial closures across the TfL network, including from Cockfosters to Uxbridge on the Piccadilly Line and several sections of the tram network.

Commuters are advised to check live travel updates before setting out, as the situation may change throughout the day. The combination of bus strikes and Tube disruption is expected to cause longer journey times across the capital.

This is a live breaking news incident, and further updates will follow as more information becomes available.
