Central Line Suspended Due to Track Incident
The Central line is currently suspended between Liverpool Street and White City following a casualty on the track. This incident has resulted in severe delays affecting the entire Central line.
Emergency services were dispatched to Notting Hill Gate Underground station at approximately 4:15 PM on March 12, 2026. A spokesperson for the British Transport Police confirmed, “Officers were called at around 4.15pm today to reports of a casualty on the tracks at Notting Hill Gate Underground station.”
A person involved in the incident has been taken to the hospital with injuries that are not life-threatening or life-changing. Authorities have stated that the incident is not being treated as suspicious.
Passengers are advised to check live travel updates before setting off, as the disruption is expected to continue while emergency services manage the situation. A spokesperson for Transport for London (TfL) noted, “No service between Liverpool Street and White City while emergency services deal with a casualty on the track.”
In light of the suspension, TfL is accepting tickets on alternative transport options, including London Buses, Chiltern Railways, Great Western Railway, and Greater Anglia services. Commuters are encouraged to consider using the Circle line or Hammersmith & City line, although this may require some walking.
The Central line is a vital part of London’s transport network, and incidents such as this can lead to significant disruptions for thousands of commuters. Observers are closely monitoring the situation as emergency services continue their work on the scene.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the full extent of the incident and any further implications for Central line services. Updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
