London Underground: Strikes

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what contingency arrangements are in place for passengers affected by this week's London Underground strike action.

Answer

Transport in London is devolved to the Mayor and Transport for London, and any impacts of strike action on London’s transport network are for TfL to assess and manage.

Nevertheless, the Government understands that strike action is extremely disappointing for passengers and businesses, and encourages all sides to work together to resolve this dispute as quickly as possible.
