00:00London Underground drivers are due to stage further 24-hour strikes across May and June
00:06in an ongoing dispute over working patterns after members of the RMT union rejected plans
00:12for a voluntary compressed four-day week. Transport for London says that services will
00:17face significant disruption on strike days, while the RMT warns the changes could increase fatigue,
00:24but ASLEF members are not expected to take part and will continue normal service.
00:28TfL says the proposals are voluntary and that they aim to improve reliability, while the
00:34union is calling for a shorter working week of 32 hours over four days. Services expected
00:40to recover between strike periods later onwards.
