London’s Tower Bridge was shut after a man climbed its railings around 10:40 AM, causing severe congestion in the area. Emergency services, including firefighters using a cherry picker, engaged with the individual before safely bringing him down. Police urged the public to avoid the landmark, with detours affecting traffic from Limehouse to Aldgate and Bermondsey. Buses, including routes 42, 78, and 343, were diverted. The bridge remained closed as of 12:30 PM, according to traffic reports. Authorities later reopened the bridge, but delays continued due to earlier disruptions.
