What to expect during Tube strikes: Typically, unions such as the RMT or Aslef coordinate walkouts that can affect services on multiple lines, with some lines operating limited services or closing entirely on certain days. Disruptions often extend over several days, with peak impacts during weekday commuting hours. It’s common for TfL to issue travel advisories and suggest alternative routes or travel times.

How to stay updated:
- Check official sources like Transport for London (TfL) travel updates and the London Underground page for service status and any line closures.
- Look at reputable national and local outlets with live blogs or dedicated “Tube strikes” sections (BBC News, ITN/ITV, and major papers often have real-time updates during strikes).
- Social media channels from TfL and major unions typically post rapid updates, including which lines are affected and expected restoration of services.
