Submitted by Admin on 6 December, 2015 - 00:35RMT warns of continuing tube overcrowding danger as it emerges that Oxford Circus was closed 112 times in past year
General Secretary Mick Cash said;
"The news today that Oxford Circus has had to be closed 112 times in the past year due to severe overcrowding is the clearest warning yet that the tube network is bursting at the seams. It also confirms that the only buffer between that overcrowding and a major tragedy is station and platform staff taking life-or-death decisions to manage the massive pressure on the system.
