There will be severe disruptions on the Docklands Light Railway today and Thursday due to strikes taking place.
Early morning services on Friday may also be affected on the DLR.
Strike action, called by the RMT union in a dispute with KeolisAmey Docklands, is affecting services over the next few days.
RMT General Secretary Mick Cash said: “RMT is bitterly disappointed and extremely angry that Keolis Amey Docklands have kicked away a golden opportunity to resolve the issues at the heart of the dispute in the ACAS talks today and yesterday. The strikes go ahead as planned and RMT recognises the impact that our action will have and the responsibility for that will be entirely down to the company.
“This dispute is over the fundamental issues of workplace justice, fairness, the outsourcing of key functions and sticking to agreements and practices that Keolis seem to believe that they can trample all over. RMT members employed by KAD have had enough of being treated like dirt and have made it clear that they are prepared to stand up and fight for their fundamental rights.
“Docklands Light Railway is a key component of the transport network in the Capital City and the way that staff are being treated is a stain on London. The London Mayor, who chairs Transport for London, needs to take full note of the workplace abuses that are happening on his watch and should now step in and help us to achieve a negotiated settlement with the company.”
