National Rail has now provided more details after a person was hit by a train earlier this morning.

All lines are blocked between Victoria and Beckenham Junction while the emergency services are at the scene.

It’s affecting Southeastern services between London Victoria and Ramsgate, Orpington, Dover Priory or Ashford International.

A spokesperson said: ‘The emergency services and response teams are on site, and power to the railway has been switched off to allow them to access the railway.

‘Trains may be cancelled, revised or diverted. Disruption is expected until approximately 2pm.’

These routes via Bromley South are now using an alternative route:

• London Victoria to Ramsgate / Dover Priory via Chatham
• London Victoria to Ashford via Maidstone East

You may use your ticket at no extra cost on the following:

• London Buses via any reasonable route
• London Underground between London Victoria and Brixton

All lanes have now reopened clockwise on the M25 between junction 24 for Potters Barr and junction 25 for Waltham Cross.

However there is still more than eight miles of congestion in the area.

Drivers are still facing delays of more than 90 minutes and National Highways warns it could take some time for the queues to clear.

The District line is still part suspended between High Street Kensington and Edgware Road due to the ongoing points failure.

TfL is asking people to switch to the Circle line to complete their journey instead, plus London Underground tickets will be accepted on South Western Railway and local buses.

There are still minor delays between High Street Kensington and Wimbledon due to a late finish to engineering work at East Putney, but these delays have improved throughout the morning.

Currently there is good service on all other London Underground and Overground lines.

The eastbound carriageway has two out of three lanes blocked between junction 24 for Huddersfield and 25 for Brighthouse.

Traffic officers are at the scene.

Drivers are being delayed by around 70 minutes, with about five miles of congestion on approach.

Trains are having to run at a reduced speed on some lines, affecting services between Luton, St Albans City or West Hampstead Thameslink to Sutton.

If you are travelling between Tulse Hill and Wimbledon you can continue to use your normal route but your journey may take up to 15 minutes longer than usual.

Trains will now call at all stations on this route.

Southern are working to return to their scheduled timetable, but please continue to check journey planners and station information boards before you travel. Trains currently in the area may still be disrupted.

If you are travelling to or from these stations you will need to use an alternative route to reach your destination, and your ticket will be accepted at no extra cost on:

• Alternative Thameslink or Southern Rail services including between Sutton and central London
• London Buses on routes between Wimbledon and Mitcham Junction, including via Haydons Road and Tooting

There are delays between Birmingham Moor Street and Tyseley caused by a broken down train this morning.

The train has since been moved and lines have reopened, but passengers can still expect delays of up to half an hour.

This is affecting Chiltern Railways and West Midlands Trains services and could last until nearly 9am.

The emergency services are currently dealing with an incident at Tooting which is causing delays to trains running through this station.

The fire brigade have been called and trains have been stopped to allow them to deal with the incident.

National Rail warns journeys could be delayed by up to 20 minutes or could be revised.

We’re heading outside of London now for this update, as the M65 motorway has been closed in both directions since about 4am.

Earlier delays between Kennington and Morden due to a faulty train at Tooting Broadway have now been upgraded to severe.

Meanwhile there are now minor delays on the Metropolitan line between Moor Park and Chesham caused by train cancellations.

The part suspension of the District line after a points failure at High Street Kensington is still ongoing.

Two of the earlier signal faults reported across London have been repaired and lines have reopened.

The line between Bowes Park and Alexandra Palace has reopened, but commuters can still expect delays of up to 20 minutes while service recovers.

Elsewhere, lines have also reopened in Lewisham and the disruption caused there seems to have ended.

The anti-clockwise carriageway between junction 13 for Staines-upon-Thames and junction 12 for the M3 currently has two lanes out of five closed.

National Highways are on scene trying to fix the ‘infrastructure defect’ but there aren’t any details about what the problem actually is yet.

There’s about five miles of congestion backing up, with drivers facing 40 minute delays.

The District line is now part suspended between High Street Kensington and Edgware Road due to the ongoing points failure.

TfL says London Underground tickets will be accepted on South Western Railway and local buses.

Elsewhere on the Tube, the delays on the Piccadilly line have cleared up, but there are now minor delays on the Northern line between Kennington and Morden due to a faulty train at Tooting Broadway.

Avanti West Coast and London Northwestern Railway services between London Euston and Watford Junction are now being impacted by the ongoing signal fault near Shepherd’s Bush.

National Rail now says the disruption could last until 9.30am, where it previously estimated the issue would be resolved by 8am.

A fault with the signalling system between Bowes Park and Alexandra Palace has blocked some lines between the two stations, affecting Great Northern services.

Trains could be delayed or revised and the disruption is expected to last until 8am.
