A fault with the signalling system between Hither Green and London Bridge means trains running between these stations may be delayed or diverted.

Disruption is expected until 20:00. 

What's happened?

A signalling problem occurred earlier this afternoon near Lewisham, which response staff from Network Rail have been attempting to fix.  Unfortunately the issue has not yet been resolved so two of the lines near Lewisham are blocked.

How does this affect my journey?

Trains between London Charing Cross and Ashford, Dover and Ramsgate via Tonbridge will run to and from London Victoria.

Other services between London Bridge and Hither Green may be delayed by up to 20 minutes or altered at short notice.

What do I need to do?

If your train is diverted to London Victoria, you can use London Underground between London Victoria, London Charing Cross, London Bridge and London Waterloo at no extra cost.
