Passengers have been caught in travel mayhem at London Liverpool Street station after a wave of delays and cancellations on the Elizabeth line.

Footage from the station shows passengers squeezed on the concourse at peak rush hour after the line has been part suspended.

An eyewitness told Metro that travellers were told to get to Liverpool Street from Stratford, only to find the line closed from Liverpool Street too.

One passenger said that while they saw no crowd control there was also ‘no rushing’ among the ‘very patient group’ gathered at the station.

She said: ‘No announcements either – tannoy told us to go to Liverpool street at Stratford, then when we arrived there was no announcement just got to the Elizabeth line section to find it closed.

‘Lot of exasperated commuters sighing and rolling eyes.’

Most people decided to take the Central line instead, she added.
