News, reports and information for RMT members who work for London Underground Ltd
London Underground wants to close the 11 remaining ticket offices on the network, including Queen’s Park and stations north on the Bakerloo Line. They have to conduct a public consultation before doing so; RMT is fighting for the ticket office to remain open, and asking passengers to contribute to the consultation to express their opposition to closure.
Dear RMT members
Today myself with senior RMT reps met LUL with the other unions at acas .We have laid out our demands on all the issues effected and told the company that unless good progress is made the strikes will take place and further industrial action could be called. LUL listened to our presentations and the talks are adjourned until next week. When all parties have agreed to continue discussions. As soon as we have further updates I will report back.
In solidarity
