Planned strikes by London Underground workers on Wednesday 4 and Friday 6 October have been called off, but the capital will be affected by several other walkouts this month

National Rail said: “On the days where full strike action is taking place, this is likely to result in little or no services across large areas of the network. Services are also likely to be disrupted and start later on the day immediately following a full strike day. Passengers are warned to expect significant disruption and advised to plan ahead and check before you travel.
The BMA said: “As we will be taking action on the same days, consultants will not be able to provide cover for junior doctor absence as they have during previous rounds of strike action. Instead of staging a full walkout on these days, both junior doctors and consultants will take a form of action known as Christmas Day cover.
The action means council house repairs will be disrupted, and are unlikely to be carried out on these dates. “The significant progress means that key elements have been settled, although there remain wider negotiations to be had in the job, pensions, and working agreements dispute”
