Commuters trying to get home in Thursday’s rush hour faced misery as a 24-hour Tube strike crippled London’s transport network.
Travel chaos hit people attempting to travel in the morning as industrial action began and disruption has continued through the day.
Passengers have been urged to check their route before travelling with all 11 Underground lines either suspended or part suspended.
The Elizabeth Line was running a good service but commuters were being turned away from buses as people sought alternative forms of transport.
Transport for London (TfL) said London Overground and DLR services may be subject to last minute changes on Thursday, while London Trams is running a reduced timetable.
The disruption is expected to continue into Friday morning.
The stoppage is the latest in a series of strike by members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT), which is involved in a long-running dispute over jobs.
Speaking on Thurday morning, the union’s assistant general secretary John Leach said future strikes should be expected.
Asked if there will be further action, he said: “I hope not, I very much hope not, but if there's no progress made around the table on these issues in discussions with the management and they continue to attack our pensions, jobs and contracts, the answer is yes.”
