London's Tube network is closing dozens of stations and limiting its service from Thursday, as people in the British capital brace for a possible coronavirus lockdown in the coming days.
Up to 40 stations have been shut across London and the night tube service will be suspended at weekends, Transport for London has announced. The order comes as the city's mayor Sadiq Khan urged Londoners not to travel unless it is essential to do so."Londoners should be avoiding social interaction unless absolutely necessary, and that means they should be avoiding using the transport network unless absolutely necessary.
London's famous subway system -- the oldest in the world -- is used by around 2 million people every day, and has not seen extended mass closures since the the 7/7 terror attacks in 2005 shut down parts of the service for almost a month."London will get through these extraordinarily challenging times, and ensuring the capital's critical workers can move around the city will be crucial," Khan said.
