Tube Strikle
« on: February 04, 2016, 08:02:27 PM »
The RMT union is currently planning to strike from the evening of Saturday 6 February for 48 hours. If this goes ahead, Tube services would be disrupted from early evening on Saturday and all day on Sunday 7 and Monday 8 February. As the strike involves Tube station staff, Tube services will be running but many stations may open late, close early, or may not open at all.

Services on London Overground, the bus network, DLR, tram, river and TfL Rail services will run normally, but they may be much busier than usual. Extra buses will operate. Weekend engineering works on the Tube, TfL Rail and London Overground will go ahead as planned.

Buses do not accept cash. Please use contactless payment or Oyster, or a bus & tram pass ticket. Contactless is the same fare as Oyster.

Please check before you travel and visit tfl.gov.uk/tube-strike or follow @TfLTravelAlerts, @TfLTrafficNews and @TfLBusAlerts on Twitter for the latest information.

Looks like any strike would start mid-evening (8-9pm) Saturday, going by Transport for London's website.

They probably introduced no cash because they wanted to slow down the buses by using cards....

Probably had a think about it and realised £50k a year and a final salary pension for standing around in a hi viz pointing or sitting on a chair pressing a button isn't that bad after all

Not this one - this was about the closure of ticket offices and changes to work rosters.

Of course the ticket offices could stay open if everyone wasn't using contactless cards to pay
