"Passengers are advised not to travel. Woking, Surbiton, Raynes Park and Earlsfield stations are currently closed."
South Western Railway say the Network Rail engineering works, which took place over the weekend, were originally due to be cleared by 4.30am this morning.
However, the works will now not be cleared until 8:30am at the earliest.
Until the works clear no trains can leave Wimbledon or Clapham Junction depots.
