How to help Tube staff on Monday / service update

10 July 2005

Passengers should be reassured that safety is the top priority for London Underground, the British Transport Police and the Metropolitan Police. Underground staff will be out in stations reassuring passengers that the Tube is safe to travel on. Approaching 4000 Underground staff are on duty during the morning peak on weekdays.

A number of Tube stations had to be temporarily closed on Friday due to unattended items being left in stations.

During these difficult times, we especially ask that passengers be extra careful not to leave belongings behind or leave litter on trains or at stations as these will cause unnecessary security alerts.

Passengers should remain vigilant and question any suspect items or behaviour and immediately inform Tube staff or the Police.
We expect that a normal service will operate on the following lines:

London Underground expects that passenger numbers will be lower tomorrow compared to a normal Monday in London but as the days go on we anticipate that Londoners will return to using the Tube in the same numbers as they did before.
