Aslef members reject Southern deal – Transport Focus response

16 February 2017

David Sidebottom, passenger director at the independent watchdog, commenting on Aslef members rejecting a proposed resolution to the dispute with Southern Railways, said

“The hope that services would improve on Southern has now been dashed for their passengers. They have had enough of the on-going industrial action. They have faced months of lost time, lost money and deep frustration at not being able to rely on the trains.

“It is vital that all parties in this dispute get back around the table to bring the services back to normal as soon as possible.”
