Passengers travelling on the London Underground continued to face disruptions today following strike action by an estimated 10,000 Tube workers on Tuesday.

The underground was suspended during rush hour yesterday, with only a few services running later in the day.

TfL warned of continued disruption on Wednesday with no Tube trains until at least 7.30am and a severely disrupted service until later in the morning, as a result of a strike by members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) Union.

Only the Central, Victoria and Waterloo and City lines and the DLR were running good services, according to TfL’s website this morning at 11am.

Mayor of London Sadiq Khan tweeted yesterday and urged the RMT to work with TfL to avoid further “disruption and misery for Londoners”.

Commuters expressed their concerns about delays and disruptions to their journeys on social media yesterday.

Strike action is expected to begin again on Thursday with another 24-hour industrial action planned.

RMT members are taking action in a dispute over jobs, working conditions and changes to TfL’s pension scheme.

The union said workers decided to take action after “London Underground bosses refused to rule out job cuts and detrimental changes to pensions”.

Mick Lynch, RMT’s general secretary, said that it is “political failure” which has led to strikes claiming members have been left “paying the price for a turf war between City Hall and the Government”.

He added that the dispute can be solved if Sadiq Khan met the “reasonable demands of his own workforce”.

Last month the union urged members not to work on Tuesday 1 and Thursday 3 March.
