EXCESSIVE TRACK NOISE - LONDON UNDERGROUND (HSR/2/2)

 

As Branches will be aware, RMT is in dispute with London Underground over its failure to provide an acceptable solution to reduce the noise levels caused by the Pandrol Vanguard system and the NEC recently took the decision to ballot all Train Operators, Night Tube Train Operators and Instruct Operators on the Jubilee, Central, Northern and Victoria Lines for action short of a strike to drive in manual mode at an appropriate reduced speed to mitigate the creation of excessive noise and to alleviate the distraction, discomfort and anxiety caused in the affected areas.

 

Ballot papers will be posted to you and your colleagues on Tuesday 27th August 2019 and the closing date for the ballot is Tuesday 10th September 2019. Please vote as soon as you receive your ballot paper and return it in the freepost envelope provided.

 

If you do not receive your voting paper, or know of a colleague who has not received it, please call the freephone helpline on 0800 376 3706, RMT Head Office on 0207 387 4771 to ask for the Industrial Relations Department or e-mail info@rmt.org.uk to request a replacement.
