The Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union has announced two 24-hour walkouts for members working on the London Underground in May. The strikes are expected to cause significant disruption to commuters, with services likely to be affected across four working days.
The first strike will take place on date to be confirmed a date in the first half of May, with the exact date to be announced in due course. A second 24-hour strike will follow later in the month, with dates yet to be confirmed.
London Underground staff are calling for improved pay and working conditions. The RMT union has been in talks with Transport for London (TfL) over the issues, but no agreement has been reached.
Commuters are advised to plan ahead and check for updates on the TfL website and social media channels. Travellers are also urged to consider alternative modes of transport, such as buses or trains, where possible.
The strikes are expected to have a major impact on London's transport network, with thousands of commuters set to be affected. TfL has urged passengers to check their website and social media channels for the latest information and travel advice.
