London Underground Noise Crisis | London News

London’s iconic Underground is plagued by a high-pitched screech that’s driving commuters and residents wild—especially in Brent and Camden. TfL’s attempts to fix it, including track grinding and a “data-led” approach, have drawn criticism for lack of results and transparency. Assembly members demand proof that new tactics like “train coasting” are effective, while residents feel left in the dark. TfL admits monthly updates are logistically tough, planning only eight weeks ahead. Mayor Sadiq Khan admits the Tube’s age and infrastructure make fixes hard, but promises a £9 million rail grinding boost in 2025-2026—and vows to push for greater accountability from TfL to restore public trust.
