The London Tube strike in September 2025 lasted for five days, starting on Sunday, September 7, and ending on Thursday, September 11. The industrial action caused severe disruption across the Tube network during these days, with little to no service on most lines. The strike officially ended by the morning of Friday, September 12, when services began gradually returning to normal around 8am. The strike involved workers from the RMT union advocating for a reduction in the standard 35-hour workweek to 32 hours, among other demands.
