London's transport woes: a rollercoaster ride!
After days of Tube chaos, Londoners can finally breathe easy as the Northern Line returns to normal service. But here's where it gets controversial: the Piccadilly Line is suspended due to weather warnings, causing a ripple effect on other routes.
The Northern Line's Relief
TfL has resolved signalling issues at Stockwell, bringing much-needed relief to commuters. However, the Piccadilly Line's suspension between Rayners Lane and Uxbridge due to Storm Benjamin has left many seeking alternative routes.
TfL advises customers to use the Metropolitan line as a substitute.
