Urgent: London Underground Piccadilly Line Closed, Major Delays

UPDATE: Major disruptions are hitting the London Underground this morning, November 12, as the Piccadilly Line is partially closed ahead of the morning rush hour. The line is suspended between Rayners Lane and Uxbridge to mitigate damage to train wheels caused by significant leaf fall, a recurring issue throughout autumn.

Commuters are facing severe delays, especially on services from Barons Court to both Heathrow and Rayners Lane. The situation is further exacerbated by a late finish to engineering work affecting other parts of the Piccadilly Line.

Additionally, the Central Line is experiencing minor delays between Hainault and both Leytonstone and Woodford due to train cancellations, adding to the chaos for morning travelers.

As the clock ticks closer to peak commuting hours, authorities urge passengers to seek alternative routes and allow extra time for their journeys. The impact of these disruptions is significant, with many commuters expressing frustration over the ongoing issues.
