The Metropolitan line has been partly suspended between Wembley Park to Aldgate, after Transport for London (TfL) reported a signal failure at Baker Street.
There are now minor delays on the rest of the line. Commuters have been advised to travel via the Jubilee Line if travelling in from the north west of London, and seek separate transport to City stations via other lines.
No service between Wembley Park and Aldgate due to signal failure at Baker Street. Customers are advised to use the Jubilee line for this section of the route.
