DLR unlikely to run in 2-day strike

PASSENGERS were warned yesterday that Docklands Light Railway (DLR) services in London are unlikely to run during a two-day strike.

Replacement buses will be laid on during the action, which starts tomorrow.

Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union employed by KeolisAmey Docklands, which operates the DLR on behalf of TfL, are in dispute over the outsourcing of maintenance work.

TfL director Rory O’Neill said: “If the strike goes ahead, KeolisAmey Docklands say that it is unlikely that any DLR services will run.

“TfL bus, Tube and rail services will be operating as normal, extra buses will run on key routes and staff will be available to help.

“As other TfL services are likely to be busier than normal, as ever we ask customers who are able to consider avoiding the busiest times if they can.”
