Transport for London on Friday warned an expected eight per cent pay rise for Tube staff will worsen its financial problems as negotiations on its latest Government bailout were set to go down to the wire.
TfL chiefs say they have “no viable alternative” to honouring the final year of a four-year deal that benefits about 16,500 Underground drivers and station staff, but which will reportedly cost up to £100m to implement.
