Commuters heading home from London this evening will have to catch their train from a different station due to platform closures.

Trains from Cannon Street to the Medway Towns and onwards to the Kent coast will be running from Blackfriars instead.

The service will be affected from 4.30pm until 6.45pm.

The diversion is in place as two platforms at Cannon Street remain out of use due to flooding caused by a "large leak" this morning.
