Commuters are facing major travel disruption this morning after a power failure in the Gidea Park area caused all train services between Chelmsford Station and Chadwell Heath to be cancelled.
The disruption is affecting both Greater Anglia services and the Elizabeth Line, with passengers urged to seek alternative routes.
Travellers heading from Chelmsford, Shenfield, or Harold Wood towards London are being advised to change their travel plans, as no direct services are currently running on these lines.
Adding to the travel chaos, the District Line has also been suspended between Upminster and Tower Hill, compounding difficulties for those trying to reach central London.
Key Information:
