Londoners are facing chaos as they return to work this morning due to severe delays and part suspensions across the Circle and District lines.

The Circle line was suffering “severe delays” anti-clockwise due to late finishing engineering work, while there was no service at all clockwise from Edgware Road to Aldgate.

There was no service on the District line from Parsons Green to Edgware Road and South Kensington and West Kensingotn due to the same late engineering work.

The rest of the busy Tube line was also hit with severe delays at 6.30am, even before the flood of rush hour commuters.
