Heathrow tube strike called off
A tube strike that threatened to bring the Piccadilly tube line to Heathrow to a standstill today has been called off.
The RMT union has halted its industrial action, due to begin at noon today, to continue talks with the management of Transport for London.
London Underground’s chief operating Officer Phil Hufton said: "I am pleased that we have been able to reach an agreement with the RMT which means that strike action will be suspended on the 4th and 5th December.
"This dispute is over a number of local issues, all of which have been resolved or which we have committed to addressing including honouring outstanding annual leave.
"’This agreement demonstrates what can be achieved when all parties are committed to engaging in constructive discussions."
