Green Park Tube station was evacuated and closed at rush hour after a fire alert.
Services were not stopping at the station after it was shut at around 9am.
A Transport for London spokesman said the alarm had gone off but there was no fire at the station.
Engineers were expected to reset the alarm so the station could re-open.
London Assembly member Caroline Russell was one of those caught up in the chaos.
She tweeted: ”Irony - decided to use tube not bike today as @LondonAssembly transport committee looking at underground. Been evacuated from Green Park."
Passenger Adam Blackwood tweeted: “Green park station closing for emergency...just made the carriage out.”
And Lil Miss Joey wrote: “Green Park station evacuated due to "Inspector Sands" alert. Hope everything is ok.”
