The first photos of the scene around Parliament this afternoon (Wednesday June 11) have been shared.
Two separate incidents have ground the immediate area around Parliament Square to a halt.
Photos from incident one show the emergency services having flooded Abingdon Street by the House of Commons following reports of someone trapped beneath a coach.
Just slightly up the road - on Whitehall - the street was cordoned off as a precaution due to an abandoned car.
Civil servants are reportedly not allowed in-or-out nearby government buildings.
The Met Police's Westminster team posted on X at 2.52pm: "A cordon is in place at the southern end of Whitehall as a precautionary measure while officers investigate an abandoned vehicle in the vicinity of Downing Street. It is not linked to a separate road traffic collision involving a coach and a pedestrian in nearby Abingdon Street."
