Tube strike continues second day

Severely disrupted London Underground services spurred Londoners to turn to bikes, buses and black cabs to make their way through the capital during the first working day of a Tube workers’ strike.

Members of the Rail, Maritime And Transport union (RMT) staged the walkout over pay and conditions, including a request for a reduction in the hours that make up a working week.

The Elizabeth line and the Overground were operational, albeit much busier than usual, Transport for London (TfL) said.

Industrial action is due to continue until 08:00 BST on Friday.
