Is there a London Tube strike today? Commuters facing second day of chaos on TfL lines

Road congestion in London was at its highest level of the year on Tuesday as Tube trains ground to a halt.


Commuters are facing another morning of chaos in London as a number of Tube lines have been suspended after strike action.

Just three lines are running smoothly this morning (March 2) - Central, Victoria and Hammersmith and City - and passengers have been advised to travel later in the day if possible.

Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT) walked out for 24 hours yesterday in a bitter dispute over jobs, pensions and conditions.

The strike is no longer ongoing, but disruption continues "while the network recovers".

Further strike action is then planned again for tomorrow.

TfL has said normal service should resume by mid-morning today. You can check the status of your Tube line below - more information can be found on the TfL website.
