Industrial Action on Southern Services - December 2016/January 2017


Southern Services - RMT and ASLEF industrial Action

Due to the industrial action by drivers in the ASLEF and RMT unions, regrettably we expect Southern services to be severely disrupted from Tuesday 6 December until further notice.

The strikes will affect Southern and Gatwick Express services on the following dates:

  • Tuesday 6 to Thursday 8 December (RMT conductors’ strike)
  • Tuesday 13 and Wednesday 14 December (ASLEF & RMT drivers’ strike)
  • Friday 16 December (ASLEF & RMT drivers’ strike)
  • Monday 19 and Tuesday 20 December (RMT conductors’ strike)
  • Saturday 31 December to Monday 2 January (RMT conductors’ strike)
  • Monday 9 to Saturday 14 January (ASLEF & RMT drivers’ strike)

 

Services are expected to be disrupted every day from 6 December but particularly disrupted on the drivers’ strike dates with no services on most routes. Other operators’ services are not affected, but may be busier.

Journey planners will only be updated 24 hours before the date in question.
