What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Data from Transport for London showed that passengers on the Victoria, Northern, and Jubilee lines face noise levels exceeding 100 decibels on certain Tube lines. Over the past three years, the network received 707 noise complaints, with the majority related to noise inside Tube carriages. After criticism from Elly Baker, the Mayor of London's office received the data, which prompted the allocation of funds for noise mitigation.
