We're closing our live coverage of the London Tube strike now.

However, another 24-hour strike is due this week, beginning at midday on Thursday and then going into Friday.

TfL says there will be a normal service to start off with on Thursday, which will slow during the later part of the morning. From midday there will then be significant disruption on all lines.

On Friday, some Tubes will run, but like today there is no service expected before 07:30 BST and there'll be significant disruption on all lines until midday.

Tube services will then recover in the afternoon but people should expect delays into the evening, TfL says.

We will again have live coverage for that so do join us then.

We also heard from Nick Dent, head of customer operations for Transport for London (TfL), who apologised for the effect the strike was having on commuters.

He explained that Tube services finished early on Tuesday as the firm did not want people getting stranded due to some lines having to close altogether.

He added that lines did not open first this morning for "safety" reasons.

Dent also insisted that changes to drivers' terms and conditions would be voluntary and called on the RMT union to suspend further strike action planned for tomorrow, for further talks.

This series of strikes is being held by drivers from the RMT and on BBC Radio London earlier this morning I spoke to the union's regional organiser Jared Wood who described the walkouts as "unfortunate".

Wood accused London Underground of attempting "a whole raft of attacks on terms and conditions", adding that he suspected they would be mandatory rather than voluntary.

"There have been no assurances that will be the case," he said.

"They are telling the press this will be voluntary, but I received a letter a couple of days ago from London Underground saying they could not give us those assurances at this time and that the only way we would find out what they mean by voluntary... is to help them implement it [and] then they'll tell us if it's voluntary or not.

"That's a ridiculous position to ask us to agree to."

The London Tube drivers strike has now finished but Transport for London (TfL) has warned that it will take time for all services to return to usual.

Some Tube lines still are suspended or part suspended, while the rest have severe or minor delays.

TfL has said services will take time to fully recover, with some disruption likely until the evening.

So many people are on bikes and hiring e-bikes today. I just took a Lime hire bike from Blackfriars to the BBC offices in Oxford Circus.

There were some hairy moments and I had a lot of traffic to weave through. It took 20 minutes to do three miles and cost £4.53.

But it is very doable so you can see why e-bike hire use is surging during Tube strikes.

It's an absolute dream on the bike lanes.

More people have been using bikes to get around London during the strike.

Earlier, the firm Voi told us it had experienced its busiest ever day on Tuesday and now we've heard from Alex Berwin, from the e-bike operator Forest, who says they have also seen a "surge in demand".

He says they are increasing their "battery swapping capacity" and stepping up fleet redistribution, "so our bikes can be found in areas where they are needed the most".

In particularly busy areas such as Westminster and in the City, he says his staff are using pedal-powered cargo bikes to navigate congestion, so they can do faster battery swaps after the morning peak and ahead of the evening rush.

Overall, despite the walkout everything seems pretty normal here at Tottenham Court Road station this morning, with people continuing to stream out of the station as usual.

A few people say they have been transferring to the Elizabeth line, because the Central line is part suspended in places.

Another commuter just told me: “I didn’t even know there was a strike.”

I asked a station worker if he’s had lots of confused tourists asking for directions. He replied: “We have confused people every day and not just tourists!”

I'm at Stockwell station in south London, which is served by the Victoria and Northern lines, having presented the BBC Radio London Breakfast show this morning.

After the earlier problems some experienced the Victoria line is running southbound from here approximately every three minutes.

Again heading southbound, trains appear to be running on the Northern line to Morden about every one to five minutes.

So it does appear that while trains are running not quite as regularly, things are pretty similar to normal.

At Tottenham Court Road station, I meet Anny from east London who came in on the Elizabeth line which she says was “busier than usual.”

Anny says the Tube strike has affected her social life as she was supposed to go to a mixed basketball game for amateur Taiwanese and Hong Kong players at a court in Finsbury Park later, but it has been cancelled because of the walkout.

“People can’t get there," she explains.

"It’s a shame as it was hard to find a time for everyone to get together to play and now we have to find another date.”

While most Tube routes are operating again, albeit with delays, I met some French tourists at Tottenham Court Road station. They were huddling around a Tube map looking bemused.

“We got to Russell Square Tube this morning and we found it was closed," says Melanie, from the town of Douai in France.

"It was a pity as we were on our way to meet a friend at Windsor Castle. So we walked to Tottenham Court Road.”

Another group member, Morgan, says: “We were disappointed but we are now looking for a plan B. We are late for trip to the castle but we will figure out how to get there.”

This morning it was busy at Moorgate station, which is served by both Tube and rail services, as passengers tried to use alternative routes.

I managed to get this Great Northern rail service which proved to be very efficient.

E-scooter and e-bike provider Voi saw a record number of rides on the first day of the Tube strike yesterday, according to the firm.

Voi - one of many operators in the capital - says it experienced a big surge in brand new riders, with first-time users up by 110% on the same day last week.

Overall, the company says the number of rides on its e-scooter and e-bicycles was 52% higher than the previous Tuesday.

Christina Moe Gjerde, Voi’s vice president for northern Europe, says: "Riders are determined to get around despite the strike - whether that was home from work after their station closed, out to the shops or to London’s parks in the spring weather."

The operator says it will monitor locations of the vehicles and make sure there will be enough available wherever they are needed during the next strike starting tomorrow.

It's been a little over two hours since Tube services started to run this morning and people have had various experiences travelling across London, with some facing "nightmare" commutes and others saying their journeys have been fine.

A short time ago we heard that Elizabeth line trains were not stopping temporarily at Liverpool St because of overcrowding, while Overground services have also been busier this morning.

Currently, the Circle and Waterloo & City lines are both entirely suspended, while the Bakerloo, Central, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines are part suspended.

Other Tube lines are reporting severe or minor delays, while the Elizabeth line, Overground services and tram are running with a good service.

At Finsbury Park station

Things are beginning to ease up at Finsbury Park this morning but there is still some disruption across different Tubes lines and big queues can be seen here as people find alternative routes via other trains and buses.

One man told me he's spent an extra hour travelling this morning and it's "been crazy". He said he feels lucky he's driving tomorrow when the Tube strikes continue at midday.

Another woman who is a teacher disputes the working condition demands from the RMT, saying they should "look at the bigger picture of other's working hours and not allow Londoners to suffer at the heart of this".

She says: "Yesterday I had to go to east Croydon and then all the way back to my house which actually costs more because it's a different zone and I already pay £3,500 a year from my area, so really not helpful.

"This morning I needed to get a tram, two trains and a bus and the tram then broke down so I had to get an Uber. So that's another expense. It's been a nightmare."

Another man tells me he had to take numerous trains despite his journey normally consisting of one Tube.

The general feeling here is mixed but we will see how that plays out as further strikes are planned with the next starting to tomorrow from 12pm.

A small gathering of RMT union members had formed a picket line outside High Barnet station when I was there earlier.

Tube services seem to be running regularly into Bank, and as it left the station my train was almost entirely empty.

The driver apologised to passengers, warning us to expect some delays and added that “we’ll get through this”.

As we travelled southwards, the carriage soon filled up with people. By the time we were at East Finchley it was standing room only - so pretty much like an average day on the Tube.

Luckily for me, my commute can be done using the Overground and Elizabeth line - both of which have not been hit by the walkout.

But I knew from the last strikes that things still wouldn’t be smooth, as these lines face extra demand and I ended up with an hour’s walk to work back in September during the last Tube strike.

Today was a different story.

My Overground train was on time, and fairly busy but easy to get on. When I got to Liverpool Street it was far busier, people were queuing at the escalators to get out of the Elizabeth line.

Despite that, I managed to get on a packed first train, and even got to work early.

So a longer commute, but pretty seamless.

The Tube strike is likely to have a knock-on effect on the courts system today.

It could pose problems at the Old Bailey, which numerous people travel to each day. Juries might not assemble on time, and defendants might well be late due to traffic.

The court is closest to St Paul's Underground station on the Central line, which is now running only in some sections of the line but with severe delays.

Several Tubes have slowly started running this morning.

Oxford Circus, on the Central, Victoria and Bakerloo line, is among the stations which has opened, although Transport for London (TfL) says trains are running at a reduced frequency on all three routes.

Transport for London (TfL) has said drivers could remain on a five-day week if they wanted to, pointing out that the change was voluntary and there would be no reduction in contractual hours.

Earlier this week, Claire Mann, TfL’s chief operating officer, said: “We have set out proposals to the RMT for a four-day working week.

“This allows us to offer train operators an additional day off, whilst at the same time bringing London Underground in line with the working patterns of other train operating companies, improving reliability and flexibility at no additional cost."

Nick Dent, from TfL, is due on BBC Radio London in the next five minutes. You can listen to what he has to say by clicking the "Listen live" button above.
