London Transport Strike Alert

The RMT union has announced a new series of 24-hour strikes across London’s Tube and bus networks, threatening major disruption for millions of commuters in June.

The dispute centers on a proposed four-day work week, which union leaders argue is being implemented in a way that compromises driver safety and fatigue management.

Transport for London (TfL) has offered new assurances that the change would be voluntary, but a breakthrough in talks remains elusive.

The strike action comes as TfL also faces criticism for a sharp rise in lift closures due to chronic staffing shortages.
