London Underground: Strikes

Asked by Mr Louie FrenchConservativeDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 25 March 2026UIN 121820

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of industrial action on (a) commuters within London and (b) commuters from outside London in March 2026.

Answered by Keir Mather

As Transport in London is devolved to TfL, it is for the Mayor of London to assess and manage the impact of any strike action on London’s transport network. The Government understands, however, that the RMT union has suspended its planned industrial action between Tuesday 24 March and Friday 27 March.
