TUBE workers have cancelled a mass walkout which was set to disrupt thousands of commuters. <\/p>\n
Planned strikes by London Underground employees on Wednesday and Friday have been called off, the RMT union announced today.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
An estimated 3,500 members voted for the two-day walkout as part of their ongoing battle with\u00a0TfL\u00a0over pay and conditions.<\/p>\n
But it has since been scrapped following "significant progress" in talks about jobs and conditions.<\/p>\n
The union said: "The significant progress means that key elements have been settled although there remains wider negotiations to be had in the job, pensions and working agreements dispute."<\/p>\n
RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said: "I congratulate all our members who were prepared to take strike action and our negotiations team for securing this victory in our Tube dispute.<\/p>\n
