This seems like the right response. For Americans who are used to driving everywhere, it is hard to state just how critical the tube is for all people to get to work. Very few people in London have cars, so shutting down the tube entirely would prevent critical workers from getting to work. Looking at the stations to be closed, it seems like a reasonable list; buses will still offer a reduced timetable to connect affected areas.
- j4yav 7y agoWon't this just guarantee that every bus or tram is as full as possible?
- nness 7y agoThat wouldn't be much of a change from what the tube is like normally...
- badpun 7y agoWe have reduced bus and tram schedules here in my city in Poland (they now go according to the weekend timetable) and still there's not much people in them.
- gpderetta 7y agoTube was already running 50% full from normal. Buses 40%. People are staying at home. Me and my family have already been holed up for a week.
