Elizabeth line strike called off amid new pay offer to train drivers
Briefly

Planned strikes by train drivers on London's Elizabeth line have been called off following a new pay offer from operators MTR. Aslef, the union representing the drivers, had planned series of walkouts that would have significantly disrupted travel in London. The union's executive is set to discuss the revised offer soon. Howard Smith, the director of the Elizabeth line, expressed satisfaction over the suspension of strikes, emphasizing the importance of continued cooperation between Aslef and MTR to prevent future disruptions.
We are pleased that Aslef has suspended its first two dates of planned industrial action on the Elizabeth line after a revised offer has been made. This is good news for Londoners, and we encourage Aslef and MTR Elizabeth line to continue working constructively to avoid any future disruption and address concerns.
Members of Aslef were due to stage a series of walkouts which would have caused travel disruption in the capital. Aslef said its executive will consider a revised offer tomorrow.
