Circle and Hammersmith and City lines suspended due to fears of falling fire debris
The Hammersmith and City and Circle lines have been suspended on Saturday, 17 June due to safety concerns surrounding Grenfell Tower, the scene of this week's catastophic fire.
Transport for London says there is no service on these lines between Hammersmith and Edgware Road, due to the recent fire in the Latimer Road area. Minor delays on the rest of the line. Tickets valid on Local Buses.
TfL says the suspension has been made "at the request of the London Fire Brigade" and the BBC is reporting that there are fears of debris falling on to the rail tracks from the burnt out building.
It has also prompted fears about the stability of the building itself.
TfL has not said how long the suspension will last but says tickets are valid on local buses.
If you are planning to travel this weekend and the next few weekends the following are affected by engineering works.
