London Tube Strikes Bring Chaos

London Tube Strikes Bring Chaos

The strike has forced hundreds of thousands of people to walk, cycle, or use buses, with cycling routes across the Embankment reported to be over capacity.

Several major lines, including the Jubilee, Northern, and Victoria, have been severely impacted by the industrial action.

Business leaders have warned that the walkouts will cost the London economy tens of thousands of pounds and hammer the hospitality sector.

No further talks have been scheduled between the union and TfL, raising fears of more strikes in the coming weeks.
