Time Out
⚠️🚇 #Transport for #London (TfL) has warned passengers to expect disruption across the Tube network during planned RMT #strike action from 19-22 May 2026. Most lines are expected to run, but services will vary throughout the week and all lines could face delays or reduced timetables. No service is expected on the Circle line, the Piccadilly line, the Metropolitan line between Baker Street and Aldgate, or the Central line between White City and Liverpool Street during the strikes. Disruption is expected from midday on 19 and 21 May, with services finishing earlier than usual, while delays and later starts are expected on 20 and 22 May. #TfL said the dispute relates to plans for a voluntary four-day working week for drivers. The Elizabeth line, London Overground, DLR, buses and trams are expected to operate normally, though services may be busier than usual.
