LONDON, May 12 (Xinhua) — A power outage hit the London Underground on Monday afternoon, causing widespread disruption to public transport across the British capital, Transport for London (TfL) confirmed.
TfL confirmed that disruption was affecting several parts of the Underground network, with services suspended on major lines including Bakerloo, Waterloo and City, and others experiencing major delays and partial suspensions.
A TfL spokesman said the outage occurred in south-west London and “everything went down” due to “an issue with the National Grid”.
“Some passengers may have had to spend some time in the tunnels,” a TfL spokesman said.
TfL said work was currently underway to restore services and get the Tube back online. –0–
