London is set to face another 24-hour Tube strike tomorrow as unions continue to battle with TfL over working hours.
Talks between the RMT and London Underground bosses over four-day working weeks collapsed on Monday meaning yesterday’s and tomorrow’s strikes would still go ahead.
Yesterday’s disruption was compounded by thunderstorms bringing heavy rain, hail and strong winds.
Meanwhile the Elizabeth line – one of the few routes not affected by strikes – suffered a signal fault, impacting trains to and from Heathrow.
When is the Tube strike?
The strike will run from 12.01am to 11.59pm on Thursday, June 4.
TfL is warning that services on the lines that are still running will have varying levels of service.
They said some will start late and finish early, with limited services before 6.30am. They are also advising passengers to complete their journeys by 9pm.
Which lines are affected?
Most London Underground lines have been affected by the strikes, as predicted.
Tomorrow, TfL is warning that no service:
- Circle
- Piccadilly
Partially suspended:
- Metropolitan (between Baker Street and Aldgate)
- Central (between White City and Liverpool Street)
Normal services are expected to resume on Friday.
What TfL services are running tomorrow?
If you’ve got to get around London tomorrow, there are several options, including:
- Elizabeth line
- London Overground
- DLR
- London buses
- Trams
- National Rail

Alternatively, many commuters resort to Lime, Forest, and Santander bikes – dependent on the weather.
Hospitality bears the brunt of the Tube strike
Along with commuters, hospitality businesses reported a drop in revenue during the first day of June Tube strikes.
Rossana Merlin, the manager of Okja next to Liverpool Street station, said the new cafe selling plant-based baked goodies and coffee opened last week, but takings were down on Tuesday.
She said: ‘We usually have 80 transactions between 8am and 12pm, but today we only had around 60.
‘But we knew to expect it so we cut down accordingly to avoid waste.
‘It could also be partially because of the weather.’
Bar staff at the nearby Railway Tavern said the pub is usually busier on Tuesdays all day, because it is the one day in the week when most work-from-home office staff are in.
