Queues have built up at bus stops across London this morning, as the city’s commuters face another Tube strike.
The capital has been hit with an abundance of TFL strikes in recent months, as workers dispute over jobs, pensions and working conditions.
Services on nine London Underground lines are currently suspended due to a strike by transport workers.
The Central and Northern lines are the only ones open but trains are only running on a small section of the routes.
London Overground and Docklands Light Railway services are also suspended.
Pictures already show huge queues at bus stops across the city, as commuters seek to find other modes of transport to reach work.
Backlogs have already emerged at Victoria Station and Waterloo Station.

Workers will strike for 24 hours, with the official restart time for tube services is 8am on Friday.
However, disruption is expected to carry on until mid-morning tomorrow.
There will be no or limited services running during the strike period and passengers have been advised by TFL not to travel via the underground.
Many are able to work remotely or avoid the capital altogether, but there are options available for those who have to brave the city.

Transport for London (TfL) has a walking Tube map which reveals how many minutes on average it takes to walk between stations.
TfL wrote alongside the map: ‘Walking can be a quick and easy way to get around, particularly when travelling during the busiest times, which are 5.45am-8.15am and 4pm-5.30pm, Monday to Friday.
‘This map shows how much time it takes to walk between stations on the same line.’
The results are pretty handy, with most stations in central London under 10 minutes away from one another.
