Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of the cost to (1) London's economy, and (2) the national economy, of the industrial action taken by train drivers during the week ending 4 March.

The Department is working closely with Transport for London (TfL) to ensure that London’s transport network is able to support the restart and economic recovery of the city. The Government’s commitment to supporting London’s transport network is ongoing, and we have provided close to £5 billion of support throughout the pandemic. However, transport in London is devolved and is the responsibility of the Mayor of London and TfL.
