Commuters face severe delays on the London Underground this morning after overrunning engineering works.

The hump day rush hour is off to a difficult start after disruption on a stretch of the District Line.

There are severe delays between Turnham Green and Richmond after a late finish of Network Rail engineering works, the latest TfL travel update says. The rest of the line has good service.

It comes after all the Tube strikes have been called off following a successful pay deal between the drivers’ union Aslef and TfL.

The Underground network was set to be crippled on Thursday and Tuesday before they reached an agreement yesterday.
