Planned London Underground Strikes Suspended After Pay Deal
Aslef union halts industrial action following improved pay offer from Transport for London.
- The Aslef union, representing around 2,000 Tube drivers, has suspended planned strikes on November 7 and 12.
- An improved pay offer from Transport for London led to the suspension of the strikes.
- Previously, the RMT union had also called off its planned strikes after reaching a pay agreement.
- Disruptions were anticipated to cause severe service interruptions across the London Underground network.
- The dispute centered on pay increases and working conditions, with Aslef initially rejecting a 3.8% pay rise.
