London Tube Drivers Launch 'Go Slow' Protest Over Excessive Noise Levels

Victoria Line drivers will reduce train speeds after noise levels were found to exceed legal limits, prompting health and safety concerns.

The 'go slow' protest involves driving Victoria Line trains below 50mph, potentially leading to fewer and more crowded services.
Both RMT and Aslef unions have raised concerns, with Aslef considering further industrial action if the issue persists.
Transport for London has acknowledged the noise levels exceed legal limits, offering ear defenders as a temporary measure.
Over £30 million has been spent in the past five years on noise reduction efforts, yet complaints continue to rise.
The protest highlights ongoing tensions between Tube drivers and management over workplace safety and conditions.
