In its submission to the yearly salary negotiations between TfL and the unions that represent the 16,500 Tube employees, the RMT has included the request. It demands that "any joint housing development between TfL and property developers make social housing accessible to all first." An RMT spokesperson said: “The union has always called for transport workers to be treated as key workers, like they were in the pandemic. “Therefore it is only fair and proper that they get priority on social housing in London near to their places of work so they can keep London moving 24/7.” Read more on it here. TfL accused of not 'properly informing' Streatham residents Local Liberal Democrats have criticized plans to upgrade Streatham Hill's section of the A23 road with new pedestrian crossings and a protected bike track, claiming that people have not been adequately consulted on the plan. Last Monday, Transport for London (TfL) declared that the project between Holmewood Road at the summit of Brixton Hill and Sternhold Avenue, adjacent to Streatham Hill station, will start construction this summer. The plan also includes enhancements to bus lanes by eliminating parking and loading bays, making it safer and more enjoyable for people to stroll and cycle along the major road.
