TfL disruptions: Severe delays on Northern and Bakerloo line due to signal failure and train cancellations

There are severe delays this morning on two popular London Tube lines.

According to Transport for London’s (TfL) website the Northern and Bakerloo line are seeing severe delays this morning (Tuesday 21 October). On the Northern line TfL says: “No service between Kennington and Morden while we fix a signal failure at Tooting Broadway.

“SEVERE DELAYS on the rest of the line while we fix a signal failure at Stockwell. London Buses, Southeastern, Thameslink, and South Western Railway are accepting valid tickets via any reasonable route.

“Please avoid the Northern line where possible. You will find it quicker to use alternative routes if you can.”

Commuters are advised to keep up to date with TfL’s website in case there are any changes.
