Train drivers on London's Elizabeth line are to stage a series of strikes in the next few weeks in a dispute over pay, union Aslef announced today.
The drivers will walk out on Thursday, February 27; Saturday, March 1; Saturday, March 8 and Monday, March 10, from 00:01 to 23:59.
Aslef general secretary, Mick Whelan said: “Our members have been instrumental in the success of the Elizabeth line - it's a partnership, in practice, between the company and its employees - but, despite our best efforts, MTR has decided not to recognise the input, the importance, and the value of train drivers in this success.”
