Fresh strikes are to go ahead on London‘s Night Tube this weekend in a deadlocked dispute over new rosters.
Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union on the Central and Victoria Lines will walk out for eight hours from Friday and Saturday evenings, with similar stoppages planned every weekend until June.
The union accused London Underground of blocking an attempt to make progress in resolving the row, during talks this week at the conciliation service Acas.

The RMT said it had offered to recommend suspension of the action if LU agreed a new set of ‘reasonable and realistic’ proposals.
RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said; ‘We are angry and frustrated that, once again, a proposal from our negotiators that would pave the way to lifting the current action has been knocked back by Tube chiefs.

‘Our proposal would deal with the central issue at the heart of this dispute – work-life balance.
‘We are not backing down; the action goes ahead and, with the Government on the point of lifting some Covid restrictions, it’s down to LU to start negotiating seriously.’
LU has attacked the strikes as unnecessary, and has advised passengers to check services before travelling.
