London Tube Noise Crisis Deep Dive | London News
Description
London’s Tube trains are blasting at over 100 decibels, waking residents and rattling walls — sparking outrage and calls for urgent action. Elly Baker demands a full investigation, while Mayor Sadiq Khan admits the problem stems from track “corrugation,” tackled by TfL’s new data-driven grinding strategy. But locals in Brent and South Wimbledon say noise has worsened since the change, comparing it to a concert. TfL counters they’re prioritizing fixes — removing noisy joints and allocating £9 million for grinding — but pressure mounts for real, lasting relief.
