Four day Croydon Tramlink strike to go ahead after 'bad faith' talks
A strike is set to begin this weekend on the Croydon Tramlink after a union accused Transport for London (TfL) of “bad faith” in negotiations.
Unite is holding the walkout from 8pm on Sunday to 6am on Thursday with up to 60 engineers on the south London network set to down tools over pay disparities.
Unite called the strike on Thursday stating that they wanted the pay of tram drivers to come into line with London Underground staff. They said that Tube workers can earn up to £10,000 more for equivalent roles despite both needing the same qualifications.
TfL has denied there was any “bad faith” element of the talks.
