The major station, which serves the capital’s business hub, was evacuated earlier this morning. Announcements on Jubilee Line trains are now warning the Tube will not be stopping at Canary Wharf. Transport for London said: “Canary Wharf station has been closed while we respond to a fire alert.”

One passenger said on Twitter: “Canary Wharf station being evacuated due to a ‘reported emergency’. Strange smell throughout the station.”

Another said: “Smells like a fire at Canary Wharf tube. Just alighted and alarm’s going off. Stinks.”

This station has since reopened.
