Bakerloo Line: Tube warning as drivers go on strike

Friday, 21st February 2020

Travellers have been cautioned to abstain from utilising a bustling London Underground line for four days while train drivers participate in two 24-hour strikes.

Bakerloo Line drivers will exit from 11:59 GMT and at noontime on Sunday in a disagreement about timetable changes.

Transport for London (TfL) has exhorted suburbanites to finish all excursions on the line by 12:00, with a full help not expected to continue until Tuesday.

The activity is just on one line; however, building works will influence others.

The Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers (RMT) association said it had called the strikes because of "the effect on train drivers over unworkable timetable changes".

"Most importantly you can't put insufferable pressure and weight on Tube drivers that impacts on their wellbeing basic job," general secretary Mick Cash said.

The two 24-hour strikes implied there was "prone to be almost no administration until Monday evening", as per TfL.

Scratch Dent, London Underground's chief of line activities, apologised for what he called the "superfluous disturbance" brought about by the two walk-outs.

"I would ask the RMT to keep working cooperatively with us to determine these issues," he said.

Designing chips away at a few other Tube lines will add to interruption in the capital on Saturday and Sunday.

The Circle, District, Hammersmith and City and Metropolitan lines will be shut in focal London to test another flagging framework, while the Northern Line won't run among Kennington and Moorgate for a deal with the Bank Station update.
