Most Tube lines will run normally today but damage will prevent some services from operating. The Circle line will remain closed and Transport For London can give no indication of when the timetable will resume.

King's Cross underground station, scene of one of the bombs, will be open only for Metropolitan line services. Trains on the Northern and Victoria lines will not stop. No Piccadilly service will run between Hyde Park Corner and Arnos Grove. Replacement buses will be available. The Hammersmith & City line will operate between Hammersmith and Paddington only. On the Metropolitan, no service will run between Moorgate and Aldgate. The District will not run between Edgware Road and High Street Kensington.

Buses will run as usual but diversions will be made around the crime scenes. Mainline routes and the DLR are planning normal services. The congestion charge, suspended on Thursday and Friday, will be back in operation.
