TfL has advised passengers to only travel ‘if journey is essential’ during planned RMT Tube strikes next week (Sunday 7 to Friday 12 January 2024)
Towards the end of 2023, we saw London Underground journeys reach four million a day, so it’s clear that demand is well and truly back after the pandemic.
We know that along with disruption to the tube next week, there will likely be an impact on Elizabeth line, London Overground and DLR services on each strike day too.
If these strikes do go ahead as planned, they will be really disruptive for passengers. This is not the start to the new year Londoners wanted.

If the industrial action goes ahead, TfL will look to amend planned engineering work on the District line, which could result in a closure of the Wimbledon branch of the District line between Wimbledon and Parsons Green on Friday 5 January.
