I am supposed to be getting to Hammersmith later from Lewisham. Does the train station shutting affect the tube and will I need to top up my Oyster Card?

Victoria station was shut today after reports of a “pungent smell.”


Police, fire and ambulance crews were dispatched to the station to investigate the incident.
Tube trains were not stopping at the Underground station and people were evacuated from an area above ground as a precaution. Tube workers reported feeling unwell.
A British Transport Police spokesman said officers were called to a ticket office at Victoria Rail station at 1.18pm after reports of a unusual smell.
A spokesman said: “Paramedics are also on the scene after a number of staff reported feeling unwell.”
Reports of a gas leak are believed to have been ruled out and specialist officers with protective CBRN suite were on stand-by to investigate.
